&quot;This too shall pass.&quot;<br /> &quot;What&#039;s going to happen in there, it&#039;s not right or wrong, it&#039;s not good or bad, it is. It&#039;s what happens next. &quot;<br /> &quot;Even the worst things have things to love in them.&quot;

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain&#039;t all sunshine and rainbows. It&#039;s a very mean and nasty place and I don&#039;t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.
