WHAT'S IN LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL TO YOU?

I was asked this question during the Dec 6 Beginners' Cup of the Division I of Toastmasters Club District 75.   It was nervewracking to answer an impromptu question thrown at you with all eyes watching your every word.

I almost went blackout.  I stumbled then I realize what makes life beautiful are the failures and mistakes we encountered along the way because they made us stronger and better versions of ourselves.  I recounted how I failed to graduate with Latin honors and how devastated my family is.  Afterall, they perceived me as an achiever having been a consistent honor student since elementary.
