Like that is honestly kind of remarkable on the whole when like it could be so easy to just like break into someone's house and steal some shit. And I think maybe I'm grateful that that hasn't happened to me. And it also sucks for the people that it has. But on the whole, at least where I live, the level of it seems to be pretty low.

Reflecting on life, I've realized that unlike in childhood, life doesn't offer cheat codes, or if it does, they're found in relationships with other people, built on trust and love. As a father, I want to avoid giving my children shortcuts because I believe it's important for their development to face challenges head-on. I recognize that seeking the easy way out can hinder growth, a lesson I've learned firsthand. Going forward, I intend to be mindful of this to ensure both I and my children fully engage in the effort required by life's journey.
