Was watching "The Rifleman" today. I'm not big on TV, but it is a great show. I'm always glad when Dad puts that one on. Anyway, there was a scene that struck a chord ...

Lucas: "Looks like you're growing up!"
Mark:  "How do you mean?"
Lucas: "Well, son, the older you get, the more questions that don't have answers"

Wow! how profound! and powerfully true!

Life is full of hard questions. We go through the motions day in, day out, but that is all it is. In reality we are only floundering.

It's kind of odd how you can look at another person's life through your eyes and think they got things figured out so much better than you do. In actuality, we all stumble through life.

The complexity of the stumbling may vary from person to person, but there is no denying that we all have more questions we have answers for. The biggest thing is, how much do those unanswered questions impact your life?

one thing that I have a really hard time not doing is "comparing other people's outsides to my insides."

Everyone has their demons.

it's easy to forget that.
