About This Quote

Pain is a part of life, and it’s not going away any time soon. The best way to deal with pain is to find the right person to share it with. When you’re in pain, who do you want by your side? Someone you feel comfortable sharing it with, someone who will listen without judging or telling you what to do. Someone who will be there for you, encouraging you when you have a bad day or just when you need someone to tell you that you’re doing okay. In the end, how we choose to deal with pain is ultimately the measure of who we are and of the success we have in closing our gaps.
