Hey, people of Mastodon! One of my friends just failed a class (after working her ass off to pass it). She's feeling pretty low, and wondering what's going to be open to her now. I've reassured her that failure is not the end of the world, because I failed, but I'm not sure she believes me.
If you've ever failed at something, big or small, only to succeed later, would you mind sharing your story? I want to show her it's okay.
Boosts welcomed. Thank you!
@hafnia almost 14 years ago, I got kicked out of college, and was one fight with my parents away from being homeless and jobless. Well, I had that fight. With the help of my friends, i was able to get some where safe and had a place to live where i could finish growing up, and now I've been working professionally for 10 years in my chosen field, and I have a house. It didn't happen how it was "supposed" to, but it can still happen anyway.
