The stars in the early morning sky, above Monument Avenue.
Six miles later the sun was well up as we swung back onto Monument from Malvern, my fleece around my waist.
The temperature read 19 degrees when I got home.
To get Nelson to school on time, I would have to hustle.
Another day, another thanksgiving.

In today's Word from Grace Street, Wallace+ writes:
In an op-ed over the weekend, "The Power of Failure," columnist William D. Cohan quotes Sam Wells, the Dean of Duke Chapel, hoping that students would "never be dazzled by their success...and not pretend success is everything or success makes you immortal. And, most of all, that you'll let your life begin the day you really, seriously fail, and [that you'll] let that day be the day you discover who you really are..."
Cohan writes, "There is enormous power in failure, especially when one learns from it."

The power of failure. The gift of failure. The blessing of failure.
When it comes, are we willing to receive it?
