Overcoming a Failure Growing up is a learning experience, and sometimes it is difficult for us to understand why things happen or how to process them. When young people fall in love they fall hard, immature or inexperienced the love is great, but when they fall apart, the pain is greater. Throughout life and especially with love it is important to always continue to move forward, adapt, and overcome our failures. It was through failure that I realized the true strength within me, a strength which allowed me to endure and survive. It is easy to fall in love, but staying in love is a whole other challenge. I fell fast for a beautiful young woman, as did she for me. Once love was in the air there seems to be no end. The days were brighter and happier, every morning was like a breath of fresh air. Every talk and every kiss seemed to be perfect. Knowing someone was always there made life wonderful. There was a feeling of security that made everything seem everlasting. Everything was perfect for as long as we could remember, but slowly everything changed. After a while life got in the way of love. Before we knew what had happened it was too late, fate had driven us apart. After the break up came the heartbreak, and after the heartbreak came the pain. Pain that was accompanied by loneliness and emptiness. There is no instant cure for a broken heart. Few things can heal the wounds left by the love of another. Time is the only solution, but time moves slowest when a heart aches. The heartbreak killed me on the inside; it cut deeper than any wound I had felt before. It made me slow down, life seemed to be less meaningful and all joy seemed to be lost. Weeks passed before I even remembered what life was about. It took a month for me to remember there’s more to life than love. One person can leave scars and wounds, but one person can not ruin a life.
