Living is a test
Of our endurance
Everything coming our way
Is bound to test us in one way or another
A bounty is as likely to be a test
As is deprivation of something
Being strong, steadfast shows character
Resilience and endurance are the hallmarks
Of a strong character, unbreakable in times of crisis

Well said! Reminds me of a Kipling quote, something about looking on adversity and good fortune and treating them both the same.

Just last evening… some kind of a truck tried to go under a low stone bridge…
He did make it out the other side… after peeling the top of his truck!!
Sometimes you need to measure twice before you cut (in or take action!). ๐

Oh Iโve seen that too. Have seen them stuck under the bridge too. ๐

I remember that some bridges had signs saying how high they were… you would think driver would know better and not risk a low bridge. But mistakes happen.
