About This Quote

Trials are meant to test our character and show us who we really are. They can be painful and difficult, but they are ultimately an opportunity in disguise. Trials in life can be a chance to be open with people about a matter in a kind, loving manner. If you learn from a trial that you aren’t going to try it again, then it was a worthwhile experience.
