I got a rather terrible grade on an assignment I had turned in, not the one I mentioned the other evening in the last entry. I was briefly quite upset over it, I did my best and worked so hard and it still was not good enough. After I had calmed down however I came to the realization that, that's okay. There are going to be times in life that nothing we do will ever be good enough. We can hope and wish that things played out differently but we cannot undo this reality. We can however learn and grow, to take away from this experience and do better the next time. It is okay to be upset but do not let it control you.
