Perspective on Failure

What are your thoughts and reflections on failure? Most people typically think in one of two ways: failure is something we try to forget or failure is something we are ashamed of. Rarely will people embrace failure as a way of life. Yet, that’s exactly how are to approach failure if we want to grow spiritually. In Western culture, we often think dualistically: “success is good; failures is bad.” But the two are inseparable from one another. They are two sides of the same coin.
