On Pain and Sorrow

If you live life, sorrow will occur. The more you live, the more you love, and the more deeply you live and love, the greater the rewards, but also the greater the sorrows.

Some of these sorrows will come and then eventually go. But other sorrows are so deep that they will stay for good.

Amidst your sadness, rejoice that you were given something that is worth the sorrow you feel now that it is gone. All things including sorrow have a side that points toward shade and a side that points toward sun; be sure to also dwell on this sun side of the sorrow … the beauty, the joy, the gift of whatever or whomever you were given, in whatever amount of time it was granted to you in its physical form.

Human as we are, we should learn all by these thoughts. With the righteousness that we have acquired, we will all be guided. Don't let pain and sorrow hinder your happiness. After all, WE all deserve to be HAPPY.
