"Les erreurs sont un fait de la vie. C'est la réponse à l'erreur qui compte."
— Nikki Giovanni
Simplified Meaning:
Everyone makes mistakes; it’s a normal part of life. What really matters is how you handle these mistakes. For example, if you accidentally spill coffee on your friend’s favorite book, you have a choice in your response. You can either ignore it and hope they don’t notice, or you can admit your mistake, apologize, and offer to replace the book. The second option shows responsibility and care, which can strengthen your friendship. Similarly, in school or work, when you make a mistake, being honest, fixing the problem, and learning from it helps you grow and avoid repeating it. This approach leads to better relationships and personal improvement.
