About This Quote
When a person is eventually left alone, they might feel as if their heart has been shattered into a million pieces. It’s a wonder that a person can be brave enough to survive those experiences and return to the world again. But, they do it because they know there is hope. Some might think that someone who has been through so much pain would give up on life.
However, this belief is mistaken. In fact, people who have been through unimaginable pain may be even stronger as a result of their experiences. They have been through so much that their minds become hardened and they have gained a profound insight into the world – an insight that most people will never understand.
