Class isn't Real

Location

Class isn't Real. Nor are the Students.

Class isn't Real. Nor are the Books.

Class isn't Real. Nor are the Chalkboards.

All that is Real is failure.

Failure is Real. As is the Homework.

Failure is Real. As is the Test.

Failure is Real. As is the Grade.

All that isn't Real is success.

 

To succeed in life, you need to fail. Who is out there to help you fail? No one. Only you. Don't blame your issues on the teacher. They can barely live themselves.All they have is a gradebook. You have the power to change it all. So stand up. Take charge. Because failure is Real. And so are You.
