On Problems . . . .

Problems are but rungs in the ladder of life. Our efforts should be not to eliminate problems (for what use is a ladder without rungs), but rather use them to our advantage; scaling progressively to higher and higher levels of oneself.

    Amen, Nick! Problems are opportunities to work on things in our lives that we obviously need to work on. Otherwise they wouldn’t present as “problems”.

    Keep up the good writing, and hope to see you in Seattle again soon. You were killin’ with the Blue Note tour!
