A failure?

[leiju]

They say it is better to have tried and failed, than to have failed to try. But at which point do you know you have tried enough and have failed? And how do you know you have tried hard enough? Or is that even a parameter to consider

"This isn't even my area of expertise! What was I thinking? Thrusting myself into a project everyone seems to think is a good idea just because I have (had) the financial means to?"

I thought it was a good idea for anthropological, sociological, and, historical reasons, as well as entertainment with the aspect of education.
I'm sorry you're feeling lost. I'm a little more sorry you felt relief. you've done so much, seen so many things I'll never see. and (not just in my perverse belief set) can and will do and see so much more.

I wish I could chat with you again. I'm on skype now...not under this screen name. and our schedules should be almost exactly opposites.
anyway. miss you.

you'll never be a failure in my eyes. and you'll never be a failure until you let go of the desire to try.
