I would prefer
to be a honest failure
     than to be
    a corrupt success.

maybe someone was paying it forward to you?
you never know! i wonder if the gas station voided

:heart:i love what you wrote..an honest failure may be a failure, for me i'm quite happy whenever im honest in things better than a "destroyed" success..when you have to live with the mistakes.. :-X
