Would you just relax? I found this cartoon when I taught at the Brown School. I hung it up by my desk as Alice's reminder to me to 'chill out' when the end of the year came around. Whereas this is the period of winding down for the semester, and the boulder/beach ball still needs to be pushed uphill, I am reminded of how much hard work goes into living life and that no matter what we do, the ball/rock will roll back down. Even so, pushing forward is "what we got" while we got it.
