It Will All Be Okay In The End.....





"People who have only good experiences aren’t very interesting. They may be content, and happy after a fashion, but they aren’t very deep. It may seem a misfortune now, and it makes things difficult, but well—it’s easy to feel all the happy, simple stuff. Not that happiness is necessarily simple. But I don’t think you’re going to have a life like that, and I think you’ll be the better for it. The difficult thing is to not be overwhelmed by the bad patches. You must not let them defeat you. You must see them as a gift—a cruel gift, but a gift nonetheless.”- Peter Cameron


I am so thankful I found this quote when I did. Life hasn't been too easy lately and have been completely overwhelmed by it. And sometimes I feel like a bitter bitch whenever I hear about other people's good fortune's. I absolutely hate being that person but there are times when I can't help it. I start my own "pity me" parade and constantly ask the question "why me??". This quote has made me put things into perspective. Everything happens for a reason and I  need to take it in stride. The rough patches and the harsh lessons are what life is all about. It may sometimes feel like it is tearing you apart- but you will come out of it a better and stronger person because of it.
