#Theweekthatwas @ 07/09/2025
In a week of recovery, I learned that:
No human being is infallible, which is why seeking sincere forgiveness must be part of our lifestyles
Being proud of one's heritage or culture can become arrogance if we use that to look down on or judge others
Weakness is not expressing that you have any, it's trying to make out like you have none
Showing emotion is not a sign of weakness, inability to manage our responses and decisions based on emotion might be
When we harbour ill-feeling towards others, we allow them to live rent-free in our heads and care-free in our hearts
Who/what we turn to when things go completely sour, will tell us who/what our god is
One of the greatest challenges (or opportunities) modern living presents is excessive amounts of free unproductive time
Protecting our children is no longer a matter of keeping them indoors; in fact, it may be better to get them outdoors away from the threat of high-speed internet
There are people in your life who will make you feel as though you're the worst person in the world and, fortunately, there are those who provide the balance
Losing with arrogance makes you a loser; losing with learning makes you a better competitor
Chasing the temporary highs of life distracts us from our ultimate purpose and destination
