The obstacle is an opportunity to grow

 


The extent of the struggle determines the extent of the growth. 



Overhead, 

a crazy song. 

It's a bird. 

How 

out of its throat 

smaller than a finger 

can there fall the waters 

of its song? 

(P. Neruda, Ode To Bird Watching)





A happy life consists in the tranquility of mind. Marcus Tullius Cicero
