I think the fall in Eden was ultimately a failure to give thanks.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The loss of Eden is personally experienced by every one of us as we leave the wonder and magic and also the pains and terrors of childhood.
A love of nature is a consolation against failure.
I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried has failed.
There is a contest old as Eden, which still goes on - the conflict between right and wrong, between error and truth. In this conflict every human being has a part.
We failed, but in the good providence of God apparent failure often proves a blessing.
Failure sometimes enlarges the spirit. You have to fall back upon humanity and God.
I feel that 'The Great Failure' is really a book written out of great love and a willingness to face all of who a human being is.
In God's world, for those who are in earnest, there is no failure. No work truly done, no word earnestly spoken, no sacrifice freely made, was ever made in vain.
I see the entire world as Eden, and every time you take an inch of it away, you must do so with respect.
Heaven knows that I have done all that a mortal could do, to save the people, and the failure was not my fault, but the fault of others.
