Quote & Thought

"You desire to know the art of living, my friend? It is contained in one phrase: make use of suffering."
~Henri Frédéric Amiel

A powerful quote that I would like to pen my thoughts too. If you think about it, there is an art to living. There is a knack for knowing how to use your life, taking the hand you were dealt with in life, and making something good. As much as I talk about positive thoughts, speech and attitude, there is something profound about suffering. It is in our suffering that makes us strong. “Make use of suffering,” because the suffering is an open window for you to look through to see your true strength and potential. Suffering will not last forever, just as tomorrow is a new day.
Suffering is fleeing, but the strength and stability learned from your suffering is ceaseless.
