good quote

[polywolf]

I saw this quote the other day and thought it was really great:

"the creator does not make us face things he knows we can't handle"

I'm not sure I agree with that, mainly due to:

1. The aspect of my views that doesn't ascribe human elements to any deity.

2. The lack of definition of 'we'. There's plenty that faces me that I myself cannot handle, but with my support group, is a simple matter.

I'd personally prefer something along the lines of...

"We are never faced with a challenge that some combination of mindset, support, and preparedness cannot overcome."

It allows for the deity perspective and is not specific to the self.

Having just read some new blog entries from our workers in the Gaza Strip, I am not especially inclined to believe that.
