Someone sent this to me, I have no idea who said it. (Does anyone know?)
So often we look at a calendar of days as merely a symbol of the passage of time. We forget why we are on this earth. We forget that there is a reason for all of the pain and all of the struggle. We forget that we were put on earth to learn something. If everything were perfect in this life, we would never learn anything new. We would not be able to elevate our spirits through the events that happen to us.

When you judge other people remember one overriding axiom: 'Everybody is having a hard time'. Everyone is insecure. Everyone is hassled. Everyone is tired - we all need more sleep. Everyone wishes he had more courage, more money and better social skills. Everyone wants more glamour in his life, and we all desperately need more laughter. Few can figure out how they ended up living the life they lead. Don't be misled by flippant talk; it's a battle for everyone... Give people a break. It's not easy doing a life. - Joshua Halberstam in Everyday Ethics

Occum's Razor -- "The simplest explanation for the same phenomenon is more likely to be accurate than the more complicated explanation."
The original was latin: "Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate" which translates literally to "Plurality should not be posited without necessity."
