If anything these past few years have made me, it's a little more humble.
I think it's safe to say that most people have encountered hardships. Some much more than others. I am one person who was blessed with some sort of security financially, when the rest of the world had none. I believe that true success, from a spiritual perspective, is when you can survive tough times, and still think of others along the way. You've done just that. Much respect for that! Lovely write up. Thank you for sharing.
