The wise and mighty

She wishes she had the time to sit and watch this guy for a few days or even a few hours and learn some lessons in patience, resilience, and gratitude. She could not imagine her life getting up every day to do the very exact basic task, long hour after long hour, rain or shine, heat or freeze, order or chaos, and God knows what other circumstances too. But of course, there is a family to feed and shelter, basic needs to attend to, the next generation to empower. As she glanced at him, tirelessly rearranging his goods for the nth time that day, she realized we all have our destiny in this life. Wise are those who embrace that destiny and start every day as a new day. And mighty are those who labor hard enough and persist long enough to help forge a better life through, and even despite of, it all.
