About This Quote

The world is a cruel, dark place. It can be very hard to endure the world’s problems, but it doesn’t have to be that way. By reminding yourself that the world is a scary place, you can let go of some of your own troubles. If you find yourself getting angry at people who are mean to you, stop and think about how tough it is to be someone else. If you are sad because things aren’t working out the way you hoped, remember that there are so many others out there who are also heartbroken.
