Your stepping stone

Over the years

when you've suffered a setback,

and the reason for it

seemed unknown.

Did you ever consider

that it was a lesson

and that failure's a stepping stone?

How you respond

and what you learn from it,

shows the world how much

you have grown.

You'll climb a bit higher

toward the peak of success

making failure a stepping stone.

For you make the choice,

in the way that you see it.

It is your decision alone.

You can stall in self-pity

or keep moving upward

making failure a stepping stone.

So join all the people

who've ever succeeded,and practice

the courage they've shown.

Learn from your losses

but keep climbing higher,

and make failure your stepping stone.

"each of us has his shares of failures, but we need to stand up and try to do it again... who knows by God's grace... we will succeed in this next try..."
