Life will say to you, “here’s a sorrow, let me teach you about strength,” before you are ready. Life will say to you before you are ready, “Here is failure, let me teach you how to develop.” Life will say to you before you are ready, “here is loss, but I will educate you to respect what was while enjoying what is.” Life will say to you before you are ready, “Here is treachery or unkindness, but I will educate you to be loyal, honest, and kind.” Life will say to you before you are ready, “let go of your pride and arrogance, and allow me to teach you humility.” Life will educate you to be bold before you are ready. And when you’re ready, life will say, “Here is everything we deserve and have worked for; it’s up to you to value it.”
