Friend,
Please remember that to err and learn something is not an error at all.
If you should ever feel inadequate, know that the grandest processes have sculpted and refined your being for billions upon billions of years. The same forces yielding canyons and mountains and all the sublime wonders of nature have not suddenly failed with you.
And friend, when you experience trouble and misfortune, I’ll cry with you for a time. I have not an antidote or an explanation for our misfortunes, but at the bottom of it, they are evidence of our shared condition.
Sincerely,
A friend
