About This Quote

You can learn so much more when you are in a situation where you have to pull yourself together and face the world. When you are down on your luck, you have to get yourself together to get on with your life. If you are at the bottom of the barrel, then you have to get on top of things before it’s too late. When you are forced to make new choices, make amends and find new purpose, you often find yourself growing up.
