Every once in awhile, I read something and it just hits close to home. The feeling you get when you think about what you read over and over again. This was an exert I took from another blog:

"I've never played victim in this game of life...and I'm not starting today.
If you want strength, you will endure pain.
If you desire wisdom, you will earn it through experience.
And if you seek happiness, you will only know it if you knew sadness.
There is always purpose behind your pain.
You just need to seek it, wait for it and pray for it."
