I Am Not a Rock

“I am a rock” is a metaphor meaning that someone is emotionally strong, stable, and unyielding, like a physical rock, often implying a sense of isolation or detachment from others, as famously used in the Simon & Garfunkel song, “I Am a Rock.”

This theory does not hold any water in real life. We were not designed to be alone. Too much of a fulfilled life depends on the actions of others. The outcome is not only based on decisions made on our part, but also on the input of  those who helped to shape us.  Listen to Scripture.

Philippians 2:3 

Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

1 Peter 3:8 

Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.

Give it some consideration and thank God for those who made you the person you are today.
