“ If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

An excerpt from the Desiderata.
I really do try to remember to keep some perspective, in whatever form it may show itself, whether things are going well or not so well.
Today, for perspective, as I was moping around in a frustrated funk regarding the job, my mom texted with some news…
Earlier today, a girl I went to high school with (she’s three years older than me) had a hysterectomy.
This morning, her dad - a very sweet, kind, caring man - had a wreck on his motorcycle. He hit a wild hog (those things are big and slow and don’t give two shits about anything) and isn’t expected to make it.
Right now, they are transporting her via ambulance from her hospital, to his in Austin, hoping to make it before he dies.
