Reasoning through the religious beliefs with a couple of theists . . .
Living with this for 15 years:
I should be awarded a Purple Heart for that!!Childbirth
10 long years with children who suffer chronic illnesses.
50 mile bicycle ride for charity.
Studying day and night for months for my professional boards.
Working and going to school full time.
Backpacking trips.
Hormonal teenagers.
Raising 5 kids, (especially the 3 daughters!). Both the greatest test and the best journey of my life.
Putting up with this texas heat and humidity for 52 yrs
It's a long story but being a single mom and going to college and working nights as a waitress.ย Awful times.
Scriptwriter Frank Muir said he once saw a sign saying Cul de Sac under which somebody had written, "What isn't?" On that basis I'd have to say that surviving on this planet for almost 80 years is a feat of endurance.
Then again, I suppose walking with arthritis in the extremities could translate as "feet" of endurance.
Makes all the marathons I ran and the triathlons I completed seem pretty feeble by comparison.
Making it through two approximately 24 hour coach journeys (from the UK to the French Alps and back). We travelled overnight, and didn't have many rest stops. I didn't get any sleep and my legs and back were aching from being stuck in the same position for so long! I also didn't know anyone else going on the trip, so I had no one to talk to for both the journeys and week long trip itself. I was so glad when it was over!
Eight years in the Green Berets. The training alone was tough as I ever been through. Then came the weeks of laying in the jungle night after night and not moving at all. That took some real endurance !
This human experience.
Several days of backpacking/hiking in the woods of Montana, including 18 miles in one day. I can't believe I actually survived that...
Raising a family.
The worst evil of this world:
The beep test
