The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.

It is difficult to see where the value can be derived when in the midst of experiencing a time of defeat, suffering or loss. But take heart in knowing that these trials do indeed serve a purpose. In looking back, when viewed in proper perspective, you will generally find that it was during those precise moments, when the most profound changes and insights have been borne in us. So, have faith, that it WILL bring benefits that you may not be able to see in the moment.
