Do not judge those who try and fail; judge those who fail to try.

Many people do not like the word “try”, claiming, like Yoda (of Star Wars fame) that “there is no ‘try’; there is only do and not do”. Yet in addition to merely “attempt”, “try” has other meanings (and motives) – worth considering.

Happy Days was a popular television series about life in the 1950s (in Milwaukee, Wisconsin). Happiness is a place people can come from. Bliss may be something to follow, buy happiness is NOT a state to pursue (even if doing so is regarded as a Constitutionally self-evident “right”).
