"What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down."
-Mary Pickford

Card 114

Most people think failure is something violent and shattering... but that's just the fall. Failure is a strange complacency. It's like death.

This will also be dropped off at Berkshire Mall, MA.

When I cough... people think I'm sneezing.... but when I sneez nobody says "God Bless You."< note: that was in a Catholic school........ LMAO

Yeah, Shout and I have talked about sending cards to people... it would definitely help us spread out more.
But for now, I am on ninja duty. =D

Too many people are so afraid of making mistakes that they never get back up after their first fall.
That's no way to live.

BTW, when I sneeze, people think I'm coughing, so no one ever says "God BlessYou" to me. XD

(Shout made some new cards, too... you can see them on our Flickr account, in case you're interested, since these are only my cards.)

I agree wholeheartedly. Failure is something that shapes us, more so than success at times yes? So I think the lighter color scheme you used matches that sentiment perfectly :)
:iconoceano-vox-howl:
Well, I don't think it's so much failure that shapes us as the fall, because that way we learn to get back up. But, yes, I think we are shaped far more by our cuts and bruises than we are by praise or self-satisfaction, because those never push you forward... at least, not that far.
I think failure is, as this quote states, not learning to get back up.

bwahaha ok well hit me up if you ever need a fellow ninja's help...... bwahahaha I feel like a nerd! Well good luck with your ninja duty! :ninja: lol

yea that's really true. If at first you don't succeed try and try again! (I think there is more to that quote though something like until there is absolutley no point to trying anymore...)I get back up... what's the use of staying grounded? Life'l move on without you so you better get your butt in gear. xD

BWAHAHA wow well if I ever meet you if you sneeze/ cough i will say God Bless you! xD <3 ha ha
I will def check em when I get the chance.

Always overused in different senses but I'm glad this quote didn't cliche a good thought. People who thrive solely off praise don't have a solid foundation in terms of self-motivation and whatnot. I really don't like it when people do things for the sake of others, although compassion/empathy is important to have. Improve because you want to better yourself! Not because your parents/friends/societal standards want you to. D:
