—Nobody wants it.
—It’s easier when you’re not on it.
—You don’t get used to it.
—You can’t handle it without God.
—It’s impossible to adequately prepare for it.
—You grow (faith, trust, divine dependency) by being on it.
—You don’t stay on it forever (in this life, anyway).
—You can think of an infinite number of people you think would be better suited for it.
—Your admiration grows for those who’ve spent much time on it.
—You greatly anticipate the time you are no longer on it.
—It’s a humbling experience.
—You think about what you should have done differently while on it.

With that kind of growth, you should do it again! You did a great job!
It was great to see you and so many others at Freed! I just enjoyed my trip very much.
Thanks for your contribution to the open forum. I thought you three worked together very well.
