LIFE: Realize tough times and pain can help us to grow.


I like the quote, “The pain passes, but the beauty remains” by Pierre-Auguste Renoir.  He tells us that the pain that we encounter in life does not have to be a lost cause.  No one likes to go through tough, painful times but it is inevitable along our journeys.  As painful as certain seasons or situations in life can be, we tend to gain some invaluable insights, lessons, strength, and humility during those times.  

Think back to a tough time in your life and remember the lessons you learned while persevering through it.  Take note of the positive traits, lessons, or relationships that came as a result.
