"People who have only good experiences aren't very
interesting. They may be content, and happy after a fashion,
but they aren't very deep. It may seem a misfortune now, and
it makes things difficult, but well -- it's easy to feel all
the happy, simple stuff. Not that happiness is necessarily
simple. But I don't think you're going to have a life like
that, and I think you'll be the better for it. The difficult
thing is to not be overwhelmed by the bad patches. You must
not let them defeat you. You must see them as a gift -- a
cruel gift, but a gift nonetheless." -- Peter Cameron Sent from my iPad
