Completely agree with Saritha. "Failure" is always a learning experience...a solid meal even if it does not include the dessert of success. I know some actors who failed on stage, mainly due to financial constraints, and have,since, succeeded in films (Pawan Kumar, to name one. His career has taken off in Kannada movies...he is, or was, a very talented playwright too). So should I consider such people failures or successes? I think of them as successes...where the sapling did not take, they moved to more fertile soil. If someone has to close hes ( a nice pronoun that a friend of mine advocates, as being non-gender) place of business because the city chooses to build a flyover right next to it, how can that be a failure, even if the business is closing down? Hmm...I seem to drift even when on the thread...I suppose threads can fray as well as drift! Hi, Saritha. Long time no see, no hear, no speak! D.
