“It is not just a person's physical constitution, their intellegence, their education, or even their social conditioning that enables them to withstand hardship.

“If the lives of men were relieved of all need, hardship and adversity; if everything they took in hand were successful, they would be so swollen with arrogance that, though they might not burst, they would present the spectacle of unbridled folly-nay, they would go mad. And I may say, further, that a certain amount of care or pain or trouble is necessary for every man at all times. A ship without ballast is unstable and will not go straight.”

“Silver linings are, in essence, the construct of hope. They give us something to look forward to, focus on, and strive for. They inspire change by providing a glimpse of a better future. A silver lining is not the same as being in denial or having rose-colored glasses. It is the ability to find hope amid darkness, to see possibility where others see despair. Being an optimist can be a challenging mindset to maintain in moments of negativity. For this reason, those with the space to envision the silver linings must do so. Furthermore, when we cannot find them ourselves, we can rely on each other to help us cope until we can.”
