Successes and Failures

I heard a quote and had a thought:

The one who walks through life without mistakes,
Has walked through life not having accomplished a single thing.

There is a lot of truth in both.. but think about this:

Without failure, how would we know how to define success? And without success, how would we know how to define failure? Which came first, and which is more important in life?

If we don’t have failures, how can we learn? But when failure deters the want or persistence to try again, how can we ultimately reach success? How do we know our successes are successes and not just a really good failure which we accept as a success from the lack of determination to do it just a little bit better?

haha, I’m really bored at work (now add confused w/ a headache).

Hook’d on The Hook

Charlottesville’s weekly life saver! Without the information revealed in each edition of The Hook, I’d have no escape from my ‘friends,’ ‘family,’ or all the shit that goes down in my apartment that drives me up the wall. In a way, this is my anger management, my way out: this is my escape from life. Every Tuesday I’ll grab an one of the magazines from York Place, go grab a slice of Christians Pizza, sit outside and immerse myself in the readings for hours. Of course, the rest of the week, I get to enjoy the benefits of the read. Concerts are revealed, plays and events are listed, classified are of interest: It gives me something to do just about every day of the week so I don’t have to go home, or hang out with my ‘friends’ (aside from the few I actually like to hang out with).

I’ll probably update this post a little later tonight.
