My Bittersweet Failure = Me

What is failure?

I had this conversation today with my friend.
She said: I'm so useless.

I told her: I failed many times too.
Failure is a stepping stone to success.
You have to make the mistake first, then you see where you went wrong!
Therefore when you fail, next time you'll succeed.
Everyone goes through it at some point in their life.

She said: Then it's all right to fail?

I told her: That's true! This is a matter of trust. Whoever looks down on you, I'll back you up. You have me. We'll do our best together. Let's get good grades, etc! We want to tell our loved ones that we have made it! We pass the test! We also want to tell them that we got good grades!

Today I was reminded:
Failure is a stepping stone to success...Because you fail, you will succeed!

My dear friend, if you have problems, don't hesitate to say. I'll help you no matter what!

It's difficult now to make it. I have to make it this time. I won't give up no matter what! Never! I can't do many things...but, I'll do my best to do things! But if I can't do it, I'll get help from my loved ones to my lecturers. They are the guide who will light my life. So even if I fail, it will be okay because I will face it and get help from others. We'll all do it together!(A silent voice in my head said: That's the spirit! You have potential. All that is left is for you to believe in yourself!)

While watching Daisuki! (I Love You!), a Japanese Drama, I was reminded of many things which includes to be kind always.

I've failed in many things. I failed in my studies. I failed in my driving test. I failed in love. I failed in working. But the most heart-wrenching is I failed also in friendships. All this happened in my life recently...but no matter what, no one's life is perfect.

I may not have friends, but I still have many things in my life. I have a loving family who stands by me no matter what. They believe in me although I lack confidence in everything I do. They worry for me whenever I have exams. I have a beautiful family who supports each other. I am proud of my family. I am blessed to be a part of them. Most of all, I realize, it is my family who will always be there for me whenever I am down, I need help, I need money, I need encouragement & even when I fail. They never look down on me, not even once. I have two siblings and loving parents. I'm also blessed with a few good people in my life. One of them is my boyfriend whom I lovingly call Wei Wei. He is my pillar of strength, my confidant, and my soul mate. He knows how to bring out the best in me. Sometimes, I dunno how he stands me. I also have Diana Ang, Gerrine Chin, Chloe Ooi and Denise Teoh who will be in the same battle with me for my exams this year. Oh, without all of you, I'd be so lost in life. I hope God will never take you all away from me!

Looking forward to my exam in May this year!
