Why Do I Associate Grief, Loneliness with Failure
Failure is an emotive word and one thing that has been difficult to overcome - that feeling that I have failed in some way. Grief left me thinking that no matter what I did then I would fail, that it would be better to shy away from life then to go out and fail again.
It is strange as I don’t see losing your loved one as failure, however I think it shakes your self confidence. I think you start to doubt everything around you….when you step back that is the wrong thing to do.
- Success is having loved and been loved
- Success is coping with the reality of death and the sense of loss.
- Success is not hiding from the feelings but trying to work through them
Some days I feel that no matter what I do, I will fail. But do you know, if I never try anything then although I will never fail…..I will never succeed or create enjoyment in my life.
Maybe success is seeing that you are human, that doubting yourself, doubting your faith, doubting that happiness can come again. Success is being human with normal human emotions.
