“Everyone has their shit”

The Lion King, Circle of Life

I hate to be crass, but it’s just such an accurate concept.

My cousin, Leonard, introduced me to this philosophy a few years back and, while I know it to be true, I still struggle with it.

No one goes through life without hassles (see Lion King “Circle of Life”), but it’s just so difficult to remember when you are going through your own challengs that, no matter what, you probably don’t want to trade places with someone else.

It’s easy to see the surface, but we don’t know what lies below.

Better to invest the energy in solving your problems than lamenting the fact that your fate isn’t different.
