In the movie " Ghost and the Darkness " an engineer asks the world reknowned hunter Remington " Have you ever failed at anything ? " . Remington's reply " Only life ! "
Update 12 - 7/12 Originally, I made this comment under the 2 sentence rule. I guess my wish is more adults when speaking to young people were at least honest re: success or failure. We all tend to edit our life and the successes come out bigger than real and the failures shrink. We are an amalgam of the whole process good or bad.
Now, what do I do ? I don't know. In class, I tried to show the students both sides ( I think - our meories are very selective ). I attempted to give credit to those that made my career possible.
