When we think of "character building experiences" we're usually referring to setbacks or challenges. But there is nothing preventing us from learning from the good times too. It's just that we don't seem to be paying attention when things are going well. If we learn to do that, then perhaps like Alma taught, we won't be compelled to be humbled.*
(The preceding paragraph may have been the most sincere thing I've ever written on this blog--don't worry, it won't become a habit.)
