Life is a challenge, or, an encyclopedia of challenges. When I was younger, as an idealistic boy, I thought everything too simple...but, when I grew older and experienced more "real" life, I realized things are not that simple. And rather, life provides us with so many different challenges.
Then, my conclusion so far is that God provides us with challenges for reasons. Challenges are catalyst for our spiritual growth and maturity if we accept them with proper attitude, namely, with gratitude and humility, so to speak...
Don't take anything too personal but welcome things with God, asking right questions. How would he want me to grow out of this? What am I learning out of this? What gratitude can I find out of this? Each person will uniquely grow through this with a common attitude--gratitude and humility.
Yes, your life does affect your descendants in terms of what you value and how you deal with things. You are not alone...
