“Why is it we must suffer the loss of something so dear before we realize what a treasure we had?
Why must the sun be darkened before we feel how genuinely impossible it is to live without its warmth?
Why within the misery of absence does love grow by such bounds?
Why must life be this way?
It is a strange existence where such suffering makes us far better people.”
― Richelle Goodrich, Eena, The Curse of Wanyaka Cave

“A troubled life beats having no life at all”
― Richard M. Cohen, Blindsided: Lifting a Life Above Illness: A Reluctant Memoir

“Verily with hardship comes ease.”
― Surah Al-Insyirah

“Peace is more of an internal settlement rather than what is visible on the external.”
