Worth the Price of Admission?
from The Everyday Human · host Eastin DeVerna
February: On LifeFebruary 28Today's reflection was inspired by the poem "A Question" by Robert Frost.Count the scars on your body—if you have few to none, count yourself lucky. Now count the scars on your soul, if you have few to none, count yourself even luckier. But chances are, you are riddled with a mess of them, physical and of the soul and mind, great and small.You can't predict what life will throw at you. But it’s important to remember that life is not supposed to be all wonderful moments, nor is it supposed to be all terrible and difficult ones—it is supposed to be whatever it will be. If you’re lucky, it will be a mix of both, outbalanced on the good side. It all depends on the cards you’re dealt, and then the choices you make with those cards. But even if the bad side is winning out, look for those good moments and hold onto them. Even just a few can make the price of admission worth it.Reflection title: Worth the Price of Admission?Creative inspiration: Robert Frost, "A Question"Reflection Question: Look in the stars and tell them of a moment of joy, however small it may be.
