This quote from the book is my takeaway. It is an inspiring and timely reminder that the difficulties in life intend to make us better. We falter at times, but we can always get up and continue with the journey.Things can break of course, but this does not mean that one is necessarily broken. You can bounce back; what great lessons one can learn from a disaster. (Kindle Locations 144-145)

I agree. I've always wanted to travel and do more, so while I didn't really enjoy it as much as others seemed to, I did get a further push to travel (unfortunately during a pandemic) and to add to my bucket list.

Wow, this alludes to the real life that we live. However, we should always see that all times we are on our own- it's either us or us. People will only chip in occasionally to help.cd20 wrote: ↑20 Apr 2021, 12:35 I liked when Trish was talking about the marathon. She said, "Some lessons from the marathon that also apply to the marathon of life are to dedicate yourself-and prepare for the journey. Sometimes others will be there on the way, and sometimes you are on your own. either way, make the ost of it, and ultimately it is your own journey." It's such a true statement and one that stuck with me.

Very true. People are there for different reasons. We should accept everyone for who they are.

I like it that you're honest but at least you've gotten something out of the book.

This does allude to the life we live in. I do not agree that we are always on our own. I believe we find people who will be in it for the long road with us. For me, that is my husband, one of my sisters, and my best friend. I know I can count on them through anything. I hope the Lord blesses you with that kind of people as well.John Owen wrote: ↑30 Apr 2021, 04:54Wow, this alludes to the real life that we live.
