I just listened to a video of Tom Peters talking to CEO's about who to hire. He said,"Always hire enthusiasm. You can teach almost anyone, almost anything but you can't teach enthusiasm." I think of Lucy in the chocolate factory and know that if I can be that present in my life, I will succeed. Thanks for your comment.

But they're the only things that you can truly call your own."(Second Wind) So whether it's external adversity or stumbling about, it's the facing down the challenge that separates the men from the boys.
