Sometimes failure is lurking where we least expect it, and when confronted our natural response is to blame shift rather than accept our own shortcomings. But in order to grow and mature, we have to take the mask off, be honest with ourselves (and with others), and deal with the root issues that have kept us groveling in the dirt for far too long. Do we really have the power to change? It's not an instant process, nor an easy one, but if you choose to endure it you will become the vessel for the purpose you were created.
