Picking up the Pieces

I got to say today has been one of the toughest days of my life, but god has been there every step of the way. After seeing my scores, I cried for about two hours. I just felt like my life is falling apart as I have never failed at anything in my life. This is my first time ever hitting rock bottom. It's so easy for other to say its okay, but sometimes I just need some tell me that it might not be okay today and that's okay... I feel like I have kinda lost my way as failure is not easy for me to take. 

Why do we dread failure so much in life? Are we all not human? Everyone makes mistakes but why does it really matter if we have to pick ourselves up again and do it over. At least the second time we can do it better than the first time right? I mean people life there life in a box just so they won't fail. Failure is the only opportunity to begin again only this time more wisely.

We all know that God gives us some good days and some bad days because if life was always easy there would be no point to live. I think the hardest part is realizing that I am human and I make make mistakes. I can't be perfect in all instances but with faith in the Lord I can be the best person he wants me to be. This remind me of one of my favorite songs by Jason Gray. It is a great christian song which shows that even through all life trials, we are all his children. 

So I have not decided to spend the rest of my life saying "What if" but instead saying that this is the life that God gave me and I will live it to the fullest. I want to move forward from this point in my life and not let regret stand in my way. I cannot change the past but I can change my future by deciding to be happy in everyday life. I chose to live my life to the best and not let anything stand in my way. So what if Arabic wasn't my thing. I mean I did graduate and that is all that matters.
