I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 48: Monkey Bars!
Today I went to my neighborhood playground with my friend and her 6 month old. While they were playing on the baby swing, I decided to try out the monkey bars. I used to be a pro at them when I was a kid and had my own killer swingset.
Result: It was tough. The first time I tried, I got about 2/3 of the way down. The second time I tried, I got to the last rung and then fell off. It was a challenge, and I failed twice, but I'm glad that I tried :-)
