Gingerblue,
Listen to what this guy has to say about failure.

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
~ Michael Jordan

I've failed in my sobriety. I've spent the weekend drunk, hung over and I smell like a distillery.
But, I'm staying in the game, I'll keep trying, and someday I'll succeed.
