In reply to: PAUL 's message, "No!" on 20:32:24 09/17/03 Wed

When we look out into the world and our lives. We can look out into the world and take it as a learning experience, realizing that the success that is to come is based on discipline and ones character. It is through hardships and the hardship of experience of life that makes one wise. Wisdom is based on experience. Hardships also teach discipline and build our own characters. We can see this as a great challenge and that which can make us grow and overcome things and see the purpose behind the way things are.

The other option we have is to see ourselves as victims in life, blaming others for our problems, blaming evil for our own faults, having a God who�s incompetent and let things slip away and where one person is born into poverty while another is born with a silver spoon in their mouths while whining that one has a hard life and didn�t get to get spoiled like a brat and placing success on a matter of luck.

We can either see ourselves as victims in life and learn nothing or we can look at our lives and strive to overcome our limits and grow, and see what there is to learn and improve from there. Success and strength of mind is built and made stronger through failure and hardships, rather than having it all easy.
