This is my first post while on my mission... although at the moment I'm not actually yet... you get it.
Anyway.
I wanted to share something that I thought of while watching one of my nephew's favorite movies.
In the second movie of Kung Fu Panda, Master Shifu reveals the final thing Po must learn to be finished with his training; inner peace.
It is only till the end when Po speaks to the soothsayer that he can learn inner peace.
"Your story may not have such a happy beginning, but that doesn't make you who you are. it is the rest of your story, who you choose to be... So, who are you, Panda?"
Our lives are filled with hardships, pain and sadness but that is the point of it all. This life is a test and it is what we choose to do with it that matters.
I can't remember where the quote is from but we need to "take the good and the bad and just say ok." I believe this is how we endure to the end.
One last quote that ties in. My mom has it cross stiched, hanging up somewhere in our house. Cliche', but I like it.
