Failure is an undervalued experience. Although success brings us joy, I believe failure brings us something even greater. It brings us the opportunity to grow, learn, and even smile. To me, the joy brought by failure is even greater than the joy brought by happiness. Failure is an inherent part of life, so why shy away from it when we can instead embrace it as a source of empowerment? The story of my life is one marked by self-discovery and reflection. And root of all that is failure.
