Beautiful post, Gail. My favorite part is a quote which says that "the path to greatness is narrow and difficult." I think that a problem we often meet with is the fact that we think we shouldn't have any problems. But that's not true. We battle challenges almost every single day, whether small or big. The moment we let go of the belief that everything has to be perfect for us to be happy, we will find peace and freedom and stop waiting for this perfect, problem-free life which doesn't excist.
