That quote showed that failure is not a good thing but it happens to everyone and you always learn something from failure, even if it's just a simple change it's something you learned from failure. Second, so many famous people have failed and it didn't change them as a person they are still who they are.

Diana’s way: “Why don’t you have your bed made in China—the most beautiful bed imaginable, the head board and spread of yellow satin embroidered in butterflies, alighting and flying, in every size and in exquisite colors?”. (Diana Vreeland,

John Wooden once said “failure is not fatal but failure to change might be”(John Wooden Quote.) Wooden was addressing the idea that one only fails if they do not change after messing up. I never fully understood that principle until I attempted the FFA Creed Career Development Event.

I had always thought that Wooden’s statement was only inspire those who had lost, but through personal failures I have learned otherwise.

“The lives of the Dead” is a small piece of literature that tells the story of a soldier by the name of Tim O’Brien who must come to terms with the fact that people die, both soldiers and innocent, in war; along with those he loves. Although at face value this is what the story portrays, it has a bigger and more meaningful behind it. The common aphorism “every cloud has a silver lining”, which states that something good can come out of any situation, is the grand message that is being portrayed. In many instances something in O’Brien’s life went astray that left him uneasy, but something good always came out of it that can be put to use in the real world to help others as well. Tim O’Brien’s The Lives of the Dead shares philosophical ideas with John Milton’s A Mask presented at Ludlow Castle in that every cloud has a silver lining.

The constant struggle to be the best at everything, and to be better than everyone else puts a lot of pressure on the people in our society. We feel as if we need to maintain the facade of perfection because of the standards society places on us, money matters because society judges us based on class. Even though we are one society, we end up breaking the minds of people who tried to realize a life of perfection only to fail. “In spite of its elusiveness, we remain fixated on perfection. Often enough, even when we know the flaws, we still defend an image of flawlessness.
Aphorism Project My aphorism “Don 't bite the hand that feeds you,” was first seen used in writings in the 1700s. I first heard this used when I was a kid and was rude to my parents. My grandparents also used to say it to me when I was acting up at their house and they would tell me, “Don 't bite the hand that feeds you” of course, being the stubborn person I am, I never listened. It just sounded out of place to me and looking back now I wish I would 've asked what it meant.
“ You have to be able to accept failure to get better.” This quote means you have to accept failure to be a better person. This quote applies to the story “Electric Boogaloo” because his older self says don’t get caught up in your failures, laugh and be able to tell the embarrassments to friends and family. The author of “ Electric Boogaloo” shows how to push through obstacles in life, how to never give up on what you love, and to accept your embarrassments, and overcome the feelings of the memories. Pushing through your obstacles is a detail from the story, which really spoke to me.
The Effects of Using Entheogens in a Ceremonial Setting For a long time, the use of psychoactive plants have played a role in the cultures of indigenous peoples. They are often plants that come in the form of peyote, fungi, and more. These plants are then ingested as a part of a ritual or ceremony with the focus on healing, growth, gaining insight, curing disease, and in a way taking a good look at one’s own heart. When psychedelics are used for the purpose of spiritual growth and insight they are called entheogens. As opposed to a person simply taking a psychoactive substance for the purpose of just tripping, participating in ceremony or ritual creates a profound experience.
(Analysis) This quote shows that if one joins together with a community, everyone will benefit rather than trying to stand
This quote really embodies my message, and the manner in which, I believe, my community should carry themselves. The impression of the matter is people in my community often do kind things just for recognition. If I had the authority, I would ensure that they are carried out for long periods of time rather than once or twice. If I had the authority to change this about my community I
