My lovely bride of 49 years has oft reminded me that we're ALL fighting monsters of some kind. She asserts that everyone is dealing with some issue or challenge, and in many cases, multiple monsters at the same time.
The Love of My Life also encourages me to remember that almost all of these monster-fighters are "doing the best they can" under the circumstances.
Her wisdom in this regard has caused me often in life to observe more closely, care more deeply, discern more keenly, listen more intently, forgive more easily.
I wanna be like her when I grow up...
(Fighting off a few monsters of my own.)
