Kimberly - I appreciate your article. It was healthy and inspiring. Sometimes we feel that we are the only ones going thru difficulties. We are not. Everyone handles adversity in a different and who knows - - - your troubles could be blessings in disguise.

I enjoyed reading through this because it was a very interesting article. Life can be unpredictable, not implying that it is not, but there are times when predicting the basics of life, people, and cultures can also guide anyone to a successful life. Knowing the right decisions that one gains from experience, wisdom or culture believes, is plenty of information to be a successful person.

It is true that one does not need to be a rocket scientist to be successful. It's the effort, time, and inspiration that makes anyone successful. There are sacrifices, but in order to gain something, you must lose something of value.

Not everyone feels that they have a chance to success, they could be right or completely wrong. Regardless of how failures one has in life, like you have mentioned, they could be the key to one's success.

Kimberly, I appreciate you wrote this and I want to say that success is not always important and that any key can lead to success. The thought of getting there is what counts.
