Let Go

The Great Wall is magnificent, but it’s easy to overlook the high cost of constructing it.

Laborers and slaves hauled up every brick of the wall on their backs. Just one of those stones weighs an average of 70 kilos.

So when you are standing on the Great Wall, looking out at the fantastic landscape, make sure to reflect on all the blessings of your life. Not everyone has it so good.
