The Christ-on-a-crucifix pose is hard one to wipe from the mind, despite which religion you're affiliated.

Bloodied head bearing a crown of thorns, arms spread wide, nailed to the cross.

But if you pause and reflect on the symbol it'll reveal something to you.

What did it reveal to me?

That abundance exists in the value of what we give more than in what we actually get.

That there is immediate reward in sacrifice that's just as valuable as the thing you'll eventually get for it.

That the struggles we have surmount are part of the things we truly want.
