Beauty From Pain and Trials

How to make the most of your life and relationships

When I was a child, we played a Milton Bradley board game called LIFE where you used a spinner that determined how quickly you advanced on the board with a plastic car, acquiring a spouse and children (denoted by plastic pegs).

Besides differing pastel pink and blue colors (representing female and male), all the pieces look the same, so the game conditions you to think, more is better, as there’s no uniqueness. The kids even look the same.
