Children start going to school,
they use the eraser more than the pencil.
While typing
'delete' is hit upon
as many times as the other keys.
While driving,
one foot is always on the brake.
So are we really going forward
or afraid of falling back?

Perhaps it's a bit of both. As long as they learn from their mistakes, the progess should be forward, albeit ever so slowly. There is a lot more to this poem than is obvious at first glance. A very good example of eloquence in brevity! Thanks so much for entering my contest!

In electrochemistry we say that spontaneous reactions means there will be a great tendency of a reaction to occur. In Life, life is spontaneous so errors is the reaction that have a great tendency to happened. If you had read some electrochemistry book there is a staement there saying that all things ends up in disorder more than order, and it is normal.

Well your electro chemistry books seems to have covered my theme... But you see, I studied Humanities... hahaha...
what you say is perfectly correct, but isn't it unnerving at times that success comes only after so many trials...
Thanks for your thoughtful commnet... Much appreciated...
