RE: Memoir Monday #21 (7/29-8/4) - What have been some of your life's greatest surprises?

in #memoirmonday8 months ago

I agree with all of those! I think one of the things that surprises me the most is just how little of this life actually matters. All those big things that you think are so important and matter so immensely, eventually don't end up meaning much of anything. I think the other thing I would say surprises me is the fact that miracles do happen. You might think you believe they do, but you don't really get it until something like that touches you directly.

That's a great point. There was a lot I've worried about in my life that seems petty in retrospect. We waste so much of our youth that way but I suppose it isn't really a waste if we learn our lesson from it. I'm also a firm believer in miracles and have experienced them more than once.
