Something I learned
I really enjoyed learning about the concept of a fitness landscape, which teaches us to be prepared to adjust as it is impossible for our plans to predict the future (202).
Connection
Off of the discussion on fitness landscape, I connected to the comparison it provided to raising children on page 201. As one of four children, I can attest to the fact that we each posed our own challenges and came out of childhood as four very different individuals. It made me have more appreciation for the patience my parents had with us.
