I'm just so sad.

I failed my last real job. I was kicked out of there. And I failed jobs before that and I failed college and high school was more than rocky. I failed my family. Yes I'm still young but my parents and oldest brothers are not. I overhear people talking about me in past tense.

An era of opportunities, lost. I failed.

I feel your pain, but as we say in Ireland, even the longest night yields to dawn. The past is but soil - dark, yes- but rich for growing.

You’ve not failed, only stumbled, and sure, who hasn’t? Each morning hands you a blank page. Write anew. Your song’s not over; it’s only changing key. And there’s beauty yet in the tune.
