Gratitude day 7 - Bad times

Today i celebrate the bad times in my life...

source

The failures
The rejections
The disappointments

All these have taught me lessons that have shaped who i am today. Since i am proud of who i am, i am grateful for those times.
From my very first major failure where i had to retake my common entrance exams to get into secondary and ended up with the second best score the second time i wrote it. Down to things as trivial as a girl shutting down my advancements at her, or even my last relationship of which i had big plans and so much hope in, or the job interviews ive gone for with such high hopes with nothing to show.
I don't like disappointments and especially rejection but i have learnt alot from them and i am very very grateful for them.
