"When you are open to all possibilities there is no such thing as failure."

Gabbing on:
Failure is only an outcome that we did not want or expect or anticipate. Expectations that we have established for ourselves, that are unmet, we generally label as 'failure'.
How can we judge a moment or our life as 'failure' based upon the fact that one occurrence out of an infinite number of occurrences did or did not happen the 'right way'?
How can we judge the beach by one single grain of sand?
How can we judge an ocean by one droplet of water?
How can there be failure in our life when one moment transpires in a manner that we did or did not want or expect or anticipate?
We must be of greater vision.
We must let all things come to us and pass through us - unjudged by the term 'failure' or 'success'.
However, if we must judge a moment as success or failure, let us be conscious in accepting our 'failures' and 'unanticipated moments' equally as our 'successes' because within them are hidden the seeds of all of our possibilities and potentialities.
"Failure is just the term of judgment that we attached to moments we perceive as having not met our plans, that we wish to throw away."
Be of greater patience, 'failure' like the coal, in time will prove itself to be a diamond of great value.
