In aphorism, proverb on 20140319 at 21:43
How we handle a present failing is more crucial to determining a future success than is the incidence of the failure itself.
Every incidence of failure is given an opportunity for redemption, and that depends on whether we let it stop us or whether we bow to it or allow it to inspire a change within us.
A present failing is often but a perceived failing.
A failing offers but an opportunity to try again with informed experience behind us.
To loosen one’s grip is not necessarily to lose one’s grip.

The filth may stop at the bottom, but it originates at the top.
The crumbs may rest on the floor, but the loaf is cut from above.

In aphorism, proverb on 20120520 at 23:58
When progress seems to abscond,
when digression seems to supersede,
it might just seem, it might just be –
that progress has but skipped and leaped, indeed.
What force does pillage now, patience is gifted soon.
A step forward is one more than infinite retreats, absent.
Headway exists where setbacks are stalled.
What gives pique the impression of digression, or even regression, patience may find progression.
Have patience when the going gets tough, with wisdom to know that you are just getting going.

In aphorism, proverb, rumination on 20120516 at 23:59
Without an outrage, a wrong is not a scandal.
Impatience is the supernatural disappointment of mortal expectations.
Rome wasn’t built in a day, but Earth… was?
Who imagine forgiveness, realize peace. Who imagine revenge, realize war.
Imagine a society that accepts its responsibility to support each person as equally as it expects each person to respect its rule. Imagine if just one person supported a single other person, regardless of their imperfect past, embracing them for who they have the potential to be. Imagine a society that can forgive each other, that we may realize a future together.
