“Suffering in life can uncover untold depths of character and unknown strength for service. People who go through life

Suffering, on the other hand, tends to plow up the surface of our lives to uncover the depths that provide greater strength of purpose and accomplishment. Only deeply plowed earth can yield bountiful harvests.”
