I love these little quotables cards, and over the years I’ve been collecting them. This one fell out of some boxes when I was moving some stuff around the other day. At first the bold font and initial simplicity of the statement brought a smile to my face. Then I started laughing.
Success in EVERY endeavor? That seems a little extreme, and like a lot to ask for. And frankly, just not anything I’d every ask for or wish for anyone.
How about… “May the Gods grant you success in the endeavors that mean the most to you, in the endeavors that make you the best version of yourself. May the Gods always give you enough success to be happy yet humble, to be fulfilled yet wanting more. May the Gods know best what to let you fail, when the failure of the endeavor is more powerful than success. When failures come may the Gods not make it fast or too painful all at once. Instead may the Gods grant you failure on your own terms, at your own pace. May these failures the Gods bring you allow the successes to be more appreciated. May the Gods grant you many endeavors.”
But that wouldn’t fit easily on a card…
