Are you willing to take the fall?

Have you ever observe the reaction of the kids when they fall? Apparently, sometimes I do, and it makes me wonder how we adults take a fall?


Some kids fell, their mind went blank and started crying aloud, and waiting to take comfort in the arms of their parents. They shook their heads, never wanting to leave the arms and walk again.


Some kids fell and they pick themselves up and walk to a corner and weep quietly.


Some kids fell, and they sit on the floor, observe his/her surrounding, before standing up and rub the places where it hurts.


Some kids fell, and smile, then stood up almost immediately and started running around again.
And how much do we learn from these kids? Some of us let our own mistakes hit us hard and we vow never to go through it again and avoided at all cost.


Some of us badly affected by our bad mistakes in life and allow our mistakes to live and grow in us, making us feel sore over it for life.


Some of us took a rest and pick ourselves up again, taking mistakes as a lesson learnt.


Some of us accepted that we have made a mistake but bravely continue our lives without letting it affecting our later lives.


Next time, take a look at the kid who fall and you will know how he or she will deal with his or her own mistakes when he or she grows up and become an adult.


So how do you response to a fall, when you were still a kid?
