“How do you find the answer so fast”, asked my son in wonder
when I mentally calculated the long division he had been struggling with for the
last several minutes.
“Practice. Nothing but practice”, I replied.
“But you still did it so fast”, he said. “Did you know the
answer from before.”
“No, I calculated it right now.”
“But how could you do it so fas?”, he asked. “Are you the best
in the world?”
“No, Sweetheart, I am not. But I do try to be the best that I can be.”
Isn’t that what we should strive for, always?

Natasha - Oh, you bring up two such important things here! Nothing comes without a lot of practice, and it doesn't matter how good others are or aren't at something: we're called to be our own best. Such good things to keep in mind!
Yes, yes, ALWAYS!
