And actually I just discovered him and me. He's deceased now, but I discovered him only. I think a few months ago, I was listening to audiobook. It seems to be a new thing now I have to read every now and then to make sure I still know how. But it was listening to audiobook, and it was him and his kind of story. And he has a bunch of really awesome one liners and stuff like that

And the gist of the prayer is like, what a miracle. And thank you so much for this simple but beautiful and magnificent occurrence that just happened. I did not wake up, I woke up and life continues. The question about do difficult roads always lead to beautiful destinations. I'm someone who doesn't believe that things can ever be put into such a simplistic place. Life too complicated for me. I think that there are difficult roads that lead to difficult places

Valid point @DBPardes | Pressure makes Diamonds

But I think for a global simplicity, how are diamonds created? And diamonds are created through immense pressure, which can equate synonymously to stress and difficulty. But it takes immense pressure to create diamonds. And we perceive diamonds to be beautiful and sometimes flow. But the point is that that's just one micro example of beauty coming out of a difficult path

Yes, and thank you. @DBPardes

Thank you so much, Deborah. And I mean, that's exactly like why I read it. And I was like, oh, cool. And then I thought, like, that's probably not going to be someone's truth or reality with that statement. It. And particularly, I guess that additional lens comes from for me because in the Christian experience, there's all these Scriptures in the Bible that sort of have a nice sort of Pollyanna period on some really dark stuff

Thank you, Erin. That was a deep and necessary layer. And again, also goes back to perspective. I always kind of say seriously, and also jokingly that your per spective is your reality. Perception is your reality. Perspective is your reality. However you choose because there's a choice in those two words. I believe. How do you choose to interpret what is actually happening? And yes, they're real, like actual concrete things that bad

Correction: not ALL people think diamonds are beautiful 😀

Correction not all people think diamonds are beautiful, but it's a universally accepted analogy
