Talk is cheap, action is the solution

So this whole weekend i worked on this project of mine to build a ramp system for a marble ball to roll down. Over four days and quite a bit of money i had a pure copper tubing system done. It looked great. This morning i go to install it, and one of the tubes was blocking another part of the project. They suggest i move it. When i attempt to....the thing freakin shattered pieces everywhere. Too much stress i guess. Since our presentation was suppose to be today i panicked and tried to put it back together, but you can't unfortunately put something that took 4 days back together in 4 hours. I was pretty sad, mad, frustrated, and down about all the work vanishing in about .3 second. But after a nice little 1 hour nap since i only got 5 hours sleep last night, i got up and felt X 20 better. I then made up my mind, things happen. When things break, rebuild. This is not the end of the world by far. This is just another opportunity to perfect my design and make it look even better. (At the moment the support rods for horizontal forces are drying as i type :p )
We are who we choose to be...and i choose to perfect life..with every mistake and crack that comes my way.
