Last week, my granddaughter started primary school. And I wished her every success. But part of me didn’t. I really wanted her to fail in some ways because I believe that failure can be good for us to grow up. Success is that you can do something that you already know you can do, or doing something correctly the first time. First –time success is usually a luck. First-time failure, in fact, is supposed to be the natural order of things. Failure is how we learn.
I make my living by writing articles for a daily newspaper. Each week I thought that the article that I write would be the worst. I try my best every day. A successful article usually means that I am discussing the subjects I know well, writing in the way I am used to or saying the same things as anyone else but in an excellent way.
My younger daughter is a trapeze artist荡秋千演员.she spent three years putting together a show, and she did it successfully for years. There was no reason for her to change it but she did anyway. She was afraid to be bored. She met failure when she tried some new ways in her show. But she did his only in order to feed her soul心灵。
My granddaughter is a perfectionist. She will feel her failures, and I will want to comfort her. But I will also, I hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do better next time. I hope I can tell her, though, that it’s not the end of the world. With luck, it is the beginning.

It was very difficult to find jobs in the northeast of England. When John lost his job, he found it impossible to get a new one. He had heard that things were better in the south and it was easier to find work. He spent all his money, so he decided to go down to the south of the country. The best way to go was by train. So he went to the railway station and got into a train which was going to London
He was the only passenger in the train car when another man hurried in with a gun and said to him, “ your money, or your life!”
“ I haven’t got a pound,” John was very afraid and answered
“then why are you in such a fear?” the man with the gun asked angrily
“ because I thought you were the ticket-collector and I haven’t even got a ticket.” Answered John
