Are you looking for a trouble free life?
Don't you think that every time you take the trouble to figure out solutions to your problems, you grow?
Those that insulate themselves from troubles often become greatly troubled inside for a lack of something they can't quite define.
There's a sense of adventure and accomplishment that goes hand in hand with figuring out solutions to your so-called problems in life.
Without these challenges, you wither away and vegetate.
Did you ever wonder why the magnitude of world problems are measured in dollar signs?
