I've shared this story before, but after BD and S I was at meet-the-teacher night with W. There was a happy family across from us and I remember thinking "if you only knew how lucky you are to not have a broken family like ours." Then the mom held up a piece of artwork their son had done, handed it to her H and said "why don't you take this to your house." LOL! They were separated just like us. So when you're out walking around looking at others, things are rarely as they seem. If you start talking to people you discover that almost everyone has marital problems of some kind or another, it's crazy.
Funny. I was thinking about this this morning . . . I make some random connections sometimes. I was getting VO2 max testing, and I was thinking, but this is just a snapshot of some random time . . . who knows what my body is doing the rest of the time - kinda like how you see a snapshot of people - families, married couples, etc. And you just have no idea what the other 99% of the time is like.
The message of the week at my martial arts studio last week was "don't make assumptions." Harder than it sounds. But so true.
