As Long As You Try Your Best, There Is No Such Thing As Failure

I always say to my children, if you try the best, there is no such thing as failure. I believe that one hundred percent, and it is a philosophy I try to install it on my children.

When I worked in insurance, I sat insurance examination. I would like to study hard and always give my all, but there were only three options for the results. It was, honors, pass or fail. I hate the word failure in their eyes, I failed twice, but when I? As already stated, I could have tried harder, and therefore, how dare I say failure.

The result of this failure is very negative and some cruel as a trademark. The question I would answer that I fail far, only a few points, or relatively few points? When words fail me says nothing. I personally think that everyone should have a tag, or the best mark, go to G for the worst.

I was discussing this very subject with a colleague from work. He actually agreed with the points I made and told me about the claim that he had with one of his teachers when he was in school. He heard this particular teacher, to discuss his sister's recent test results, with another teacher. They were very critical about it, basically saying how badly did. My colleague knew how much effort he and his sister said, with the same teacher, in his eyes when he passed through each of these tests.

Whether you in life, as long as you try your best you can do nothing more.

A Man With Four Wives

A successful man in his life, had four wives. When he was dying, he called his fourth wife, the most recent and the most young to his bedside.

"Lovely," said the man, lured by her legendary figure, "in a couple of days I will die. After death, I would be lonely without you. Will you come with me? "

"No," replied the famous girl. "I'll stay here. I will pray at your funeral, but no more than that. And he hurried out of her husband's room.

His wife's rejection is like a stab in the heart of the man. He has devoted so much attention to his youngest wife. He was so proud of her that he was always picked as the best in any important event. His fourth wife had given dignity to the man in his old age. Surprising to find the fact that his wife had no love for the love he gave her.

However, he still had three other wives, so he called his third wife whom he married when she was middle-aged. He has fought so hard to hook his third wife. He loved his third wife who had given him much happiness. She was an attractive woman coveted by all men, she is a very loyal woman. She gave the man a sense of security.


"Sweetie," said the man, "soon I will die. After death, I would be lonely without you. Will you come with me?

"Absolutely not!" Said the young exciting woman, with a style of business. "How could be like that. I will hold a lavish funeral for you, but after the ceremony I will go with your son."

His third wife's infidelity plan makes him shaken to the bone marrow, he drove the third wife and called his second wife.

He has long lived with his second wife. She was not very attractive, but she was always at her husband's side, to help him solve problems and provide invaluable advice. She is the most trusted friend.

"My love," said the man, staring into her eyes, "I'll die soon. After death, I would be lonely without you. Will you come with me? "

"Forgive me," said the second wife with regret, "I can not go with you. I'll stay until the grave side, but no more than that. "

The old man's heart crushed by the repeatedly rejection. He called his first wife who he always seems to know forever. He had ignored her for the most recent years, especially after he met with his compelling third wife and his fourth famous wife. But his first wife is really important to him, who worked with silence from behind the scenes. He felt bad when he saw her so shabby and thin.

"My dear," he said in a pleading tone, "I'll die soon. After death, I would be lonely without you. Will you come with me? "

"Of course I'll go with you," replied the first wife steadily. "I will always be with you from one life to another."

The first wife is karma. The second wife is the family. The third wife was the wealth. The fourth wife is fame.

Read the story once again, now you know about the four wives. Which wife is the most valuable to be maintained? Which one will go with you when you die?

Märchenstille

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

So still der Tag. Ich möcht in Andacht lauschen
dem ernsten, feierlichen Glockenklang,
dem Sang der Vögel und dem Rüsternrauschen,
dem Sennerlied bei Sonnenuntergang.

Der Himmel flammt; rotgoldne Lichter gleiten
hin durch den Aether zu den Bergen klar.
Wie heimlich Küssen klingt es durch die Weiten,
wie letzter Gruß aus längst vergangnen Zeiten,
da ich Prinzessin noch im Märchen war.

Sad News

As many of you may already know, Vintage Glory is easily my favorite vintage shop in Winnipeg.

I recently discovered that one of its owners: Lana Shand passed away on March 4th after a very short battle with cancer. I am deeply saddened by this news. I did not know Lana well, except from my visits to the store where I enjoyed and spent many hours talking to her and her husband Doug about vintage, Winnipeg and life.
She will surely be missed by those who knew her well, but she will also be missed by those who she had touched through her presence at Vintage Glory.

I send my deepest regrets and my condolences to her family in this difficult time. May the love of those around you help you through the days ahead.

Lana's obituary can be found here.

Outfits: Nerdy

Hi! It's been a little while! Too long I think...

Work has been CRAZY! My buyer has been away in New York shopping and I've been left to man the office for the first time...let's just say it was a little stressful...but I made it (she's back now), nothing burnt down and apparently I did a great job! Phew! Unfortunately blogland suffered a little in the process...I try really hard not to make that happen...sometimes I just fall off the horse. The blog-horse...ok stop...I'm tired...

Not only has work been busy, but rehearsals for my show startd on Sunday, so that has been a little bit of a time eater...

AND! most importantly! I've been distracted by the weather becasue Spring has sprung early here in Winterpeg! Normally we trudge through snow until late April, but I wore a SPRING JACKET  to work this week! Woo hoo!!

So here's what I wore to work today. It's a cotton summer dress I bought for $7 at Urban Planet. I thought the melting snow deserved a little cotton dress today. (Also, please note the spring jacket I am wearing!!)

Oh yeah...and the glasses...I wear glasses. I'm a closet nerd. I'm also not much of a planner apparently. My last pair of contacts ripped and when I went to Pearl Vision to buy more I was told they don't stock conacts in store anymore and only order them in for customers. So they would call me when my contacts came in: in about 5 days...AHHH!! Pearl Vision called today though and I picked up my contacts after work. Tomorrow I'll feel normal again.
I don't really like wearing my glasses in public...I feel too nerdy.
(notice how I don't look that impressed, I took pictures today because I couldn't abandon you any longer!)





Glasses: Candies
Necklace: Ricki's Sample Sale
Blace Lace Cami: Smart Set
Multi Print Floral Dress: Urban Planet
Black Cardigan: Ricki's
Stretch Belt: Laura
Purple Tights: Walmart
T-Straps: Spring
