Being present enough to realize when we’re dealing with a curve in our own lives, and understanding how we handle the curve is creating character is liberating to me. Puts more purpose to the pain. Makes it worthwhile.
If we spent our days making someone else’s day, in everything we did, and how we conducted ourselves…pretty good recipe for a life well lived and a simple road map to follow. Give/Receive.
