Ponderings

1. I'm sure we've all heard the saying that "you only live once, so..." but I find this to be more accurate. Do you?

2. While there are some jobs I personally would never want to do (sanitation, plumber, etc.), I've never looked down on or up to anyone just because of the job they hold. Jobs are created because there is a need for it and nobody is any better or worse than someone else because of the role they fill. Have you ever felt others looked down on you because of your job?

3. Life has a way of testing us all — but what breaks one person might strengthen another, and what feels manageable to you may feel unbearable to someone else. We all carry different histories, personalities, and emotional strengths. What matters is not comparison, but compassion. Do you understand this Zulu Proverb and respect what it means?
