About This Quote
The trouble can be something you’re facing at the moment, or it can be something that happened in your past. The thing is, you can’t control what happens in your past. You may have done something you regret, or you may have made a bad decision that has affected your life negatively. The point is, you don’t have to let that trouble control your life.
It can be an obstacle to overcome or it can be a lesson that you learn from. Either way, the only thing that truly matters is what you do with the lesson when it comes along.
