There are stones in life. Some people trip over them, some people step on them and reach higher and higher climbing until they reach the top.
Years ago I was in Korea. I had a weapon in my hands. I had mickey mouse boots to keep my feet warm. I was cold. I was hungry. I was tired. I did not want to be out there at all. Years later I went hunting on a cold day. I was standing with a gun in my hand. I was cold. i was hungry. I was tired. But I was out there enjoying mother nature and was happy.
Since then I know that happiness is a state of mind, not a position or a condition.

There are a couple of ways of looking at stepping stones. The first is the passage of each year, which represents the movement from one stone to the next across time. The other is to look at stepping stones as momentous events in your life, such as graduating high school and college, beginning your career, getting married. All of these stepping stones have positive and negative potential. It is up to us to decide what we are going to make of these events.

Stepping stones in life are stages or actions that help you achieve your goals. Say you want to go to college; finishing high school could be one, getting a scholarship could be another, getting accepted to your college of choice yet another.
I think you see the pattern. If you have lifelong goals, say a career or family, you would have certain stages or critical events to go through to achieve them. Those would be stepping stones.

stepping stones are what get you from one place to another. In your life, 'stepping stones' could be described as experiences that help you grow and take you from one phase of your life to another.
Example, dating someone that you shouldn't have, only to discover who you truly are after coming out of the relationship and being a more mature person....
That experience was a stepping stone that took you to another phase in your life. Sometimes they are fun and sometimes they aren't.
But they get you places that's for sure!

Life is 20% of things that happen in your life and 80% on how you deal with them.

Your parents, those who love you, your mentors.
There are some of us who had none, it was crawling through the mud all the way up. No comfort, just sheer force and drive and dreams.
