Problems...

Why do we always crib about the problems we have in our daily lives? The
fact is, if we had no problems, we would have no life. Seek not to be free
of the problems, but to be free of their grip on your spirit. Problems are
only a problem when we're down on their level. The more we rise above them,
the less they'll hold us back. In fact, when we rise far enough above a
problem, it becomes an opportunity. Look back on your experience, and you'll
see that this is true. If we run away from the problems, they'll chase us,
and will always, eventually, catch up. Instead of seeing a problem as a
reason to run, see it as a reason to grow. Then, not only do we grow
stronger, the problem also shrinks in comparison. The higher we raise
ourselves above it, the more effectively we can deal with it. Life will
always have problems. The stronger those problems make us, the better life
will be.
