"Griffin and Sabine"
Pain and joy are like light and darkness; they are two sides of the same medal. They are interdependent and inseparably connected to each other.
-Trinley Thaye Dorje "Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje"
Isn't it funny that we never look into the lives of the great people whom we
worship, to dispel the miseries from our life and see, how much pain they have
endured in their life. The truth is, we fail to understand one simple and basic
fact that as long as there is life, there will be pain; no matter however great the
person may be... Their greatness is not in having a life without hardship but
because of their ability to remain cheerful even when surrounded by miseries.
-Deep Trivedi
Pain will leave you, when you let go.
-Jeremy Aldana
