I listen to my favorite AFOSG song called "Wishing" and gave me chills.
Words you can keep
As taken from Easton and Liszt's classic The Ethical Slut, which I believe coined the phrase for the general public:

A friend of ours, when he makes a mistake, says, philosophically, "Oh well- AFOG," That stands, he says, for Another Fucking Opportunity for Growth. Learning from one's mistakes isn't fun, but it's better than not learning at all, right?

Compare to: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
