Thinking about things in my own life….in particular when times have been tougher than easier, I was specifically thinking about people in my life. Friend, relatives, neighbors…. people. Have you been in a situation where you thought someone would totally be there for you, or step up when shit hit the fan? And they didn’t? And then the unlikeliest of people stepped up and showed you who they are….
It is said that adversity builds character. I disagree. Strongly. I believe it shows your character. It shows who you really are, and what you’re made of. When we don’t know what to do, we usually revert back to our basic instincts, and who we truly are.
New Rule: Adversity doesn’t build character, it illuminates it.
