“In the face of loss, indifference, disappointment, hurt, justification of an unhappy occurrence or being subjected to ridicule or neglect from another person, so often these things are written off with an expression: ‘That’s life.’
In reality, when one leans upon inopportunity, a break in events that could possibly result in advantage rather than disadvantage, ‘Oh, well, that’s life,’ is only a cover-up for what one truly feels.
Life has so many important issues, realities, responsibilities, attachments, pursuits, goals, purposes, associations, values, standards, meaningful occupations, that anyone who has the habit of covering up true feelings by the words ‘That’s life,’ must reconsider how important it is to seek out, respond to, and develop all the things that make everyday living a way in which to serve God through acts of charity to others, projecting hope to others, and in every way being good example with God’s Ten Commandments as the Guidelines for respectfully honoring what life is all about.”
