I bear the scars of many missteps and poor decisions along the way

but far from lamenting those times…. I treasure every mistake I’ve made

for the journey has placed me in a time and place that would never have come to pass

if what was gleaned from the threshing of those difficult times never had taken place

so my failures bear an asterisk beside each and every one….. to designate and describe the priceless lessons that were learned…… in my many successful journeys…… to failure
