Just a Thought:

No pain that we suffer,
no trial that we experience is wasted.
It ministers to our education
to the development of such qualities as
Patience, Faith, Fortitude and Humility.
All that we suffer
all that we endure,
especially when we endure it patiently,
builds up our
Character,
Purifies our hearts,
Expands our souls,
and makes us
Tender and Charitable,
more worthy to be called
children of God...
and it is through
sorrow and suffering,
toil and tribulation,
that we gain the education
that we come here to
acquire
and
which makes us more like
Our Father and Mother
in Heaven
