Life—doesn’t always play fair. It is so easy to feel the pull ofsomething heavy— something dark, and loud, and bitter. You don’t have to become hardened just because life was. When you decide to let go of bitterness—not to excuse whathappened, but to set yourself free —you begin to rise. That is true strength.
