He is a common laboring boy, but he is not Pip from Charles Dickens’s novel Great Expectations. He is a published author, but he is not Jane Austen. He works hard all day every day with no pay. He is who he is, and there is no shame in being ordinary. In fact, being ordinary could actually be extraordinary. A simple life might be boring, but it could still be comfortable. Real life is reality.

No-one is ordinary. Everybody's life is of interest to someone else. While not many of us will be fortunate to reach the famed heights of Charles Dickens or Jane Austen, we can allow others to travel in our shoes. Well told, Alex.
