We’re All Fighting Our Own Battles (FALSE)

A friend recently returned from his trip to Switzerland. He came to my station and handed me a magazine from Switzerland called Swiss Review: The Magazine For The Swiss Abroad. Reading through the stories inside, I expected to be overwhelmed with new and different information. What is happening in Switzerland can’t possible be the same as what is happening in the U.S.

It surprised me to find that is exactly what is happening.

It made me realize that though distance, culture, and goals can be different for one person, one state, or one country, we are regularly faced with the same hardships and hindrances.

We’re all fighting each other’s battles —  which happen to also be our own. The simple truth is that we share plenty of the same troubles, concerns, and doubts; we are confronted with similar criticisms, obstacles, and resistance. We’re a lot more alike than we care to admit.

 

Stay Positive & What To Do About It Is Another Matter…
