Who's got it better than us? Nobody!

— Jim Harbaugh

Reflection

Jim Harbaugh learned this phrase from his dad, Jack, who would ask it of his sons no matter what circumstances they were facing. It wasn’t a victory chant when things were going well; it was a reminder to recognize what they already had, especially when life was hard. Being grateful doesn’t mean we ignore hardship, but it reminds us that hardship doesn’t get to define the whole day. The people beside us, the opportunities still in front of us, the blessings we’ve already received, and another day to do something meaningful deserve our attention.

Looking forward,
