The Things We Need...

We need to make mistakes.

We need to fail.

We need to trip and fall, and get up only to trip and fall again.

We need to face the things that have beaten us.

We need to make mistakes.

We need to revisit the choices we have made.

We need to admit our faults.

We need to feel that agony of defeat.

We need to travel down roads that lead us nowhere.

We need to stop and think about what we are really doing.

We need to make mistakes.

We need to be humbled.

We need to wonder what the hell we're all doing here.

We need to convince ourselves that we've got it all wrong.

We need to try, try, and try again.

We need to know that we are alone in the most purest of natures.

We need to make mistakes.


We need all of this if only to realize that our choices make us who we are.
