yesterday since i was sick and stayed at home.. i watched mo twister in a show of janice de belen.. it was really funny and intriguing even if he keeps on saying that he's a bland person hhe..
he gave this illustration in answer to one question thrown at him.. everybody knows who michael jordan is right? and everybody thinks that he has gotta be the best basketball player ever.. but did you know that he's made more misses than hits in his career? according to mo he's field goal percentage is 44-45% which means that he has more chance of missing a shot than getting it in.. but he is remembered for his great shots and his basketbal skills even with that kind of of FG% (which mo said is pretty good na)...
it was the perfect illustration of it doesnt matter how many misses you have what would count would be what you have been able to achieve... maybe there's someone who has made just one shot in his life and was able to shoot that ball in.. well then he has a 100% FG but who would know but him since he just risked that one chance?

Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity to accept the
things I cannot change; courage to change
the things I can; and wisdom to know the
difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to
peace;Taking, as He did, this sinful
world as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;3
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next.
Amen.
--- Reinhold Niebuhr

i read something similar... i can't remember it now (and i guess that would nag me all night long..)
but it said something about...you should just o ahead and try it..and the great people in history are remembered by their great moments and not in their failures..but the mediocre, even if they are better, are forgotten in time.
inspiring :)
