What's the point of doing your best when it's not even good?
You spend your life working towards a goal and putting others before yourself

But the second you slip it all comes crashing down
Your whole life spent building up your legacy and it comes crashing down in one single moment

You've worked hard in all your classes but one mistake could have hindered your success
You can't do one simple favor and all that time putting people before yourself is forgotten

But it's okay
You take a breath and realize this is your life and you can rebuild
What seems like your life crumbling to pieces is just one brick falling out of place, not your whole empire

Take a step back and look at your progress one mistake in your goals, one moment you let another person down does not define your whole life. It's one brick in the castle your are building
