I have felt for a long time that the whole point in life is NOT necessarily to be happy, but more pointedly, that there is some bigger picture. There's something so much more vast than me, than my little life. I think we miss the big picture a lot of times.

I don't think it was necessarily God's intention that we were supposed to be down here having this great time. I do think, however, if we enjoy as we journey, I think that's an added dividend.

I think that you can learn something from every person you meet. If you don't learn directly FROM them, I think you can learn something from your interaction WITH them; or you can fine tune yourself as a person because of your reaction TO them. Sometimes our lessons come in the most unlikely packages, I think we just have to be still to hear them.
