It is impossible to go through life without failure. People are given choices everyday and inevitably will sometimes make the wrong one. Some mistakes are bigger and have a greater influence than others, but, regardless, failure is an integral part of one's life.
Some people view failure as a setback. They feel that mistakes slow the process of reaching their goals. Others view failure as a necessary evil; while not enjoyable it is essential to life. These people feel that mistakes teach valuable lessons and help them grow as an individual.
I feel that failure is necessary. It helps me realize my strengths and weaknesses and causes me to be more humble and understanding. Though I do not enjoy failure, it is more bearable if I remember that in the end I will learn something from it. Because it is impossible to eliminate failure from our daily lives, we must use it as an opportunity to learn and grow.
