The Best Teacher Of All?

Learning the truth of something is often best realized by experiencing its opposite.

Death teaches the precious value of life and lessons on living well.

Sickness teaches the importance of health and gratitude for good days.

Losing teaches the standard for winning and the need for preparation.

Disruption teaches appreciation for stability and at times our over-dependence on it.

Rejection teaches the role of connection and our deep human need for it.

Everything you experience contains wisdom. Even the things you don’t want to experience. They have things to teach you if you’re willing to open your mind, look, and listen.

Everything is training for something. Do the work.
