I would be clearly lying if I said that I've never failed before. For life is not a bed of roses. "Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising each time we fall" If I do fall again the next time, would you help me?

if you fall, make it as a lesson. Do not let you fall again. If you can learn from the failure of the good life will surely be yours. More important is do not give up and keep learning.

It is cool to help those in need who have failed or made some kind of mistake but sometimes it is better not to do anything so the person can learn and do much better the next time. $-MrDollars-$

Hi tomi~ Now it can't be that bad, can it? We all have things in life that haven't exactly gone the way we wanted them to go! I have made so many mistakes in my life and some were pretty big ones and I am still here! So whatever it is you will get over it and learn as well all do! And then we just have to try to pick ourselves up and sometimes just start again! It isn't always easy and sometimes will take awhile, but know what we are here to help you, at least I am~

If a friend by some reason falls down and needs help i will be more than willing to help, now if it happends again them my arms are still open for a helping hand. Even if it happens over and over again all you will hear from me is a friendly advice about whats happening to you but it will be certain that you will still have my support no matter what. A friend will always be a friend specially theres a saying that a friend in need is a friend indeed. Anytime a friend needs something like help then i will be more than willing to listen. Because i dont want karma lurking near me if someone asks some assistance i will be more than willing to help given the fact that i will be able to help. Its harder if you really want to help but you just cant.

Life is not a bed of roses and failure is a part of success. I've also heard "Its not how many times you get knocked down, its how many times you get back up". If mankind was perfect, there would be no mistakes, no failures, etc. Everybody fails at some point in their life, and those failures can be looked at as "learning experiences". As long as you are willing to accept your failures, learn from your mistakes and take the good with the bad, then you really don't need anyone's help and you will survive life's struggles. One thing is certain, you can't help anyone who isn't willing to help themselves. In my opinion, once you've decided to help yourself, you really don't need help as much as support and encouragement. If you fall and simply wait for someone to pick you up, you will not get the same support as if you have fallen and are trying your best to stand up again. Life can indeed be cruel, but I think it has to be that way in order to make us all better and stronger people.

Falling and rising up alone is not quite simple, but if you have someone whom you may lean on during that difficult time perhaps life's problem won't be that difficult at all... If you ask me if I'd help you, definitely my answer is a big YES! ^_^
