You can turn every ugly and damaging drama into a genuine blessing by seeing it differently. No one is suffering on purpose. We learn to give up the pleasure we feel in self-righteously blaming others. Healing happens when we see things differently. The question is: do you want suffering or peace? It's that simple. Donna Goddard
About This Quote

A person who is suffering tells you exactly how they are feeling, they have no problem saying it. They are not afraid to be honest about what they are going through. There is no mystery when it comes to suffering, but they are able to rise above it when they see the bigger picture. When they are willing to see the situation in a different way, that's when healing can occur.
