In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In         way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often        . Robert Bruce , leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider         a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough         in the rock. He tried six times. On the         time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to         the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made         models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked          he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have        failure. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't        “..
So what? First,always think about your failure. What caused        ?Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go          next time.
Second, is the goal you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some          about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.
The third thing to keep in         about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself" even though you may have

When I was small, my mum used to give the family something special for meals — she would make breakfast food for dinner. 
I still remember one night my mum         some bread in front of my dad, something very burnt. I waited to see if anybody noticed. To my surprise, my dad just took his          , smiled at my mum and then turned to ask me how my day at school had been. I’ve          what I told him that night.         I do remember watching him put some butter on that bread. He        as usual, every single bit. 
After dinner, my mum said          to my dad for burning the bread. And I never forget what he said, “I           burnt bread, dear. It doesn’t matter at all. ”
       , I went to kiss Dad good night.I asked him if he really liked his bread burnt. He held me in arms and       , “Your mum worked very hard all day. She's really    . And you see—a bit of burnt food never hurt anyone!”

What we really need is the understanding of each other, whether between a husband and wife, a parent and          or just between two friends. This is the key to a happy         .
So don’t get angry if the bread gets burnt. Remember,           bread never hurt anyone. Be kind to those around you and a happier life will surely come closer to you.

Dear Susan,
You are only three years old, and at this point in your life you are not able to understand this letter. But some day when you grow up, I hope you will find something         in what I am going to share with you.
Life can be        . There will be people in your life who won’t be very nice. They’ll laugh at you because you are different,         for no good reason. You will also face heartbreak (心碎) and might be        by those you love. I hope you don’t have to face these too much, but such things happen.
Be open to life anyway. You’ll find cruelty in your       through life, but don’t let that stop you from finding new things. Don’t retreat (退却) from life, and don’t          yourself. Be open to new things, new experiences and new people. You will fail many times, but if you allow that to stop you from trying, you will miss many chances. Do remember that failure (失败) is a stepping stone to success.
You will meet many people who will try to do better than you, in school, in college and at work. They’ll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, nicer clothes, and so on. To        , life is a competition. However, I believe life is a journey. If you always try your best to         others, you are wasting your life. Learn to enjoy your life danger and you will make it a journey of       , of learning and of love.
Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are         a really wonderful journey, and I will always be there for you.
Love
Dad
