Such a great inspirational piece, it needs to be reblogged since the message is so relevant!
Some lessons happen over a lifetime. Others happen in an instant.
Either way, the paradox of strength is that develops though pain.
Each misfortune cultivates a renewed appreciation.
Each obstacle fosters a new level of perseverance.
Each sadness teaches a greater depth of compassion.
Each challenge harvests a new field of possibilities.
We must all fall down to rise up.
Again and again and again.
