"For so many, instead of looking for “cause of death” when they expire, we should be looking for “cause of life” when they are still around". - Nassim Nicholas Taleb in The Bed of Procrustes
I lived in a very small town in Wisconsin for a few years. I used to get haircuts in WalMart located outside the town. There was a young woman I used to prefer because she was polite. Her husband worked in the automotive section of that WalMart. One day, as she was cutting my hair, she says, we adopted a girl. She already had a child of her own. I was stunned to hear that, the courage and the kindness it takes to commit to the responsibility to raise someone else's child. Hope she is doing well.
