It is easy to be happy and optimistic when things are going well, but when the going gets tough, how can we grow and become stronger, more resilient human beings? Well, my friends, this is probably one of the biggest challenges I face, but I have faith that I will get there eventually. In the meantime, I am growing through every attempt at achieving this.
What is the point of all of this? I think, in addition to the funny and exciting adventures, it is important to also share the struggles. It is easy to look at others and think they have it so easy, they have the perfect life. But in reality, everyone faces hard times, and I think (I hope!) that these commonalities can truly bring us all closer together... if we let them.
The past few months have been a quite tough for us, and in an attempt to add a bit of humor to this post, I will share a story with you that might have a really cheesy metaphor or two involved.
