The quilt of life is made of patches of different emotions, different experiences that we assimilate as a part of our personality. It is colorful and may not make much sense on its own but when stitched together by threads of love, creates something that is a beautiful piece of love.
I have yet to meet someone who hasn't had any sort of setback in life - it might be financial, personal , or related to health. We all in our own ways surmount all the challenges that we face. The fact we are still living is a proof . It is not whether or not we overcome the obstacles, it is how we let it change us. It is extremely tempting to let the negative incidents in our life to change us , to succumb to loss of innocence, and to become bitter.
When we remain true to our basic nature, to retain the same trust and kindness of a child, when we can proudly say that in spite of whatever life throws at me, I still have faith in the good side of human nature, is when we are truly victorious. .
It is very easy to get disillusioned with the events in life ; to let the negative incidents color the whole landscape as black or white,and forget that people are shades of grey and life is a myriad of colors that gets distorted when you see it with glasses tinted with judgements.
