#210: Some days are Diamonds, Some days are Stones

“Some days are diamonds, some days are stones.”

This John Denver was one that played on repeat during my childhood.

It was one of my dad's favorites. And even as a young child, I got the sense that my dad struggled with the stones that I believe he saw piling up around him.

Life is FULL of diamonds. Life also DELIVERS its fair share of stones.

But if we are to live life to the FULLEST, to really embrace this human experience, we need to experience both. We need to have some tolerance, understanding, and acceptance of the pain, so that we can let those diamonds shine their brightest.
