Why Do We Fall?

Why do we fall?  It’s painful, it hurts, and it can be embarrassing.  So why do it?  Well honestly sometimes we can’t help it.  We mess up sometimes unintentionally.  It happens.

That doesn’t make the mess up right, but it puts it into perspective. We don’t always get it right, and we can’t ever hope to be perfect, but every time we do fall, it teaches us one more way to stay up.

Because when we fall, we tend to not fall in the same way next time.  We might fall again, but not by the same means.

Falling and failure can be great teachers if we take the lessons to heart and don’t dwell on the failure, but instead focus on the lesson, and be a good student and learn how to be better.
