Persevering After Failures

The lesson of the day was dear to Faya, the Shape of Will, and was titled “Persevering After Failures.”

Even though she had become the Great Element of Fire, and was admired for her fighting spirit and the strength of her inner fire, she often reminded the young Espers that behind every success there are not only other individuals who have supported us but remain less visible, but also a great deal of luck, and repeated failures to overcome.

“Successes are easily visible and attractive at first glance. What we do not see, like our StarDust, is not really what matters most?”

“Results without effort do not awaken the fire that sleeps within us.”

A young Esper, a little surprised, then asked.

“But still, heroes and other legends are always highlighted. Many always praise their merits and their glories.”

“Now that we are fortunate enough to better understand our StarDust, we also know that the Lightning element, linked to consciousness, is also to be developed.”

“It then becomes easier to distinguish myths from reality and to appreciate the things that truly help us.”
