Showing Up for Life

If I have to take one page out of the book, “Showing up for life” by Sr.Bill Gates, it is this:

Life is the ultimate teacher, but it is usually through experience and not scientific research that we discover its deeper lessons. We are all here for a single purpose: to grow in wisdom and learn to love. We can do this through losing as well as through winning, by having and by not having, by succeeding or by failing. All we need to do is to show up openhearted for class …. So fulfilling life’s purpose may depend more on how we play than what we are dealt. You have to be present to win.
