		<description>You are right, life is an adventure; sometimes a difficult and frightening one; always challenging. But what would an adventure be without dangerous crossings to navigate. It&#039;s how we gain wisdom and strength.

Good stuff,

Cheers,
John

		<description>Robert,
Yes, sharing.  And that&#039;s what I love about blogging.  I&#039;m looking forward to seeing what next month&#039;s topic is.  

rummuser,
Your comment touched my heart.  Bless you.  

About hindsight...I agree, wisdom only comes by reflecting on our experiences and learning from them.  Someone once said we never have enough information when we make the most important decisions in our lives.  There are no guarantees, except if we never take risks we&#039;ll be shutting ourselves off from life.  And if things turn out &quot;badly&quot;, there&#039;s no sense in making our situation worse by upsetting ourselves. Learning how to do &lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt;, and staying loving and compassionate, is wisdom that most people never learn.  You have my utmost respect.  

Karin,
The prayer both accepts that (1) life won&#039;t always go the way we want it to and (2) that&#039;s it&#039;s our responsibility to use the bumps as opportunities to learn and grow.  You&#039;re right that there is the trust that how we respond will make a difference.  

Jackie,
Thanks!

Thank you all for taking the time to comment.</description>
