Right of passage

I have and always will be, a big fan of Survivor. The last episodes of this season are on tonight and undoubtedly my favourite part is the final right of passage walk to the last immunity challenge. As they stop to remember the other contestants, it gives you a snap shot view of the game.

This is where you get to remember at a glance what each player was like and see why they didn't survive in the game. This process has been one of the biggest character development points in my life over the last few years.

We see the show as a game but it really is a very big mirror on life. In work, in politics and sadly sometimes even in religion we see people jostling for position. Jesus had his own thoughts on position and he displayed this very openly when he knelt before his disciples and washed their feet.

In life if we really want to lead, we have to first be prepared to serve. It is only in service that we earn respect and grow personally.
