Things go away to return, brightened for the passage

About This Quote

The best things in life, like people, do not last forever. Things change and the way we look at them changes, too. When things are good, they are good. When things are bad, they are bad.

With that being said, it is important that we remain open to the possibility of change. We all have moments where everything seems to be going wrong—disappointments, hard times and losses. These are all marks of passage through which we grow stronger and more resilient.

Today is one of those days where you can see your disappointment or failure as a mark of passage, because it will return with a brighter light to remind you of what you can be.
