it's all relative

I’m a very lucky person and forget it much more than I should.

Up in until this point, relatively speaking, I’ve had very few significant challenges (if any really). Relatively speaking.

And neither have many of the people I know.

So when I get into a complaining session with some of my friends, I’ll sometimes throw this out… the idea that our challenges are far from real challenges (even though I’ll likely get right back to complaining the next day myself).

This is when I might hear…

“Well, it’s all relative.”

And they’re right.

We’re all human beings and relatively speaking, most of us with a roof over head, food in our stomachs and more fancy things than we know what to do with are living every day relatively wonderfully.

So… let us zip it, complain less and love the day.

(happy thanksgiving)
