Adversity is simply part of earth life. From it we can grow and progress if we choose to. Yes, some trials come because of our own disobedience, but many trials are simply part of life.

Be prepared. *smacks chest*

The best way to prepare for death is to live life to its fullest.

Inch by inch, life's a cinch. Yard by yard, life's hard.

One way we could describe the struggle of life would be to say it is a battle between agency and addiction. Agency is our power to choose, and addiction is what happens when we have lost that power and we are controlled by something else.

Some people will dream big dreams while others will wake up and do them.

Say no to parking lots!
