A wise friend once told me that many people think of life as a ladder…climbing rung after rung…to be better than others, above others, gaining more prestige, power, and influence. But, he said, life is instead like a garden. We move around our garden of life tending to areas that need pruning, weeding, watering, and sometimes overhauling. There is beauty, there is hardship. We must often revisit the areas of our life that need more care and attention. I like this analogy, and I offer it to you today as food for thought.
