In that quiet corner where doubt takes shelter,147Please respect copyright.PENANAWY3QlcTECz
Fear lingers—unbidden, unwelcome.147Please respect copyright.PENANAupgAw3Rh8p
It murmurs in the recesses of the mind,147Please respect copyright.PENANAFR23ogS5ao
A chorus of imagined verdicts, cruel and premature.
Time, that merciless mirror, enlarges each flaw,147Please respect copyright.PENANA42e2weMQgS
Every misstep replayed in merciless clarity.147Please respect copyright.PENANAi9FUkfTYJV
But here lies a truth so often overlooked:147Please respect copyright.PENANA8j276YAq7l
Even the fall teaches, if one dares to see.
What we call failure is seldom the end—147Please respect copyright.PENANAbjr0PnZbjP
More often, it is a turning, a redirection.147Please respect copyright.PENANAQBI1Sn9gVi
Growth, after all, is not without bruises;147Please respect copyright.PENANAmapXaP0JHC
The soil of progress is tilled by imperfection.
So if you should find yourself adrift,147Please respect copyright.PENANABgtWp2KVOX
Measure not the distance from the shore,147Please respect copyright.PENANAG7rIm6dMOc
But the courage it takes to stay afloat—147Please respect copyright.PENANAFQu14m1IkP
To keep rowing when the map is no more.
Let your missteps speak, not of shame, but of becoming.147Please respect copyright.PENANAwWyhXYKNyR
Let each scar be footnoted with wisdom hard-won.147Please respect copyright.PENANAIuHZLQwhFP
We are all unfinished stories,147Please respect copyright.PENANA1llJ1JNVw1
And in some chapters, failure is simply foresight.
