There is a nice fantasy many of us hold, it goes something like this: “It would be so nice if life could just instantly be what I wanted. I would love it if the world instantly became a world of peace, if things I want and needed would come to me exactly when I wanted them, if the weather would be perfect on the days I wanted it to be perfect, if the medical tests would always be clear …. Etc.” You get the point. Of course, we all know it is a fantasy to think that everything we want will show up instantaneously, but did you also know that we really couldn’t thrive in such a world? This morning, we talk about the gift of embodying resilience and how getting through hard times can be life-affirming and deeply rewarding. A message of our times, if there ever was one.
