Everything depends on the moment the spice hits the pan: whether it sizzles with mouthwatering fragrance or turns to ash. Once, I thought happiness was the sizzle in the pan. But it’s not. Happiness is the spice — that fragile speck, beholden to the heat, always and forever tempered by our environment. Sasha Martin
About This Quote

Life can be a challenging journey, full of obstacles and troubles which we encounter on our way towards success. However, we must not let these setbacks deter us from our goal, but rather learn from these experiences and apply them to our own lives. There is beauty in the sizzle of the pan, and there is beauty in the spice, but it is only when they become inseparable that we achieve true happiness.
