Life has a way of thrusting upon each of us conditions and circumstances that challenge us to discover what truly matters. Of course, to seize such moments and growth opportunities, we must first recognize them. We must see past whatever problem we're facing and truly grasp the growth potential. As one old song counsels, the one thing we must do right is, the day we start to fight, keep our eyes on the prize; for it's really how we deal with things, and not really the things we deal with, that can make all the difference in the world.
