I often think about how I don’t know anything about my great grandparents. Maybe they were great, maybe they were terrible. Maybe they succeeded at everything they did, maybe they stumbled through life and felt totally incompetent.
Either way, the world kept going for better or for worse, and forgot the details that probably seemed so important to them at the time. One day when I’m long gone, all the highs and lows of my life will be evened out just like theirs were. It helps me recenter and just enjoy the ride.
