Is this really true? I know all the gurus say it is but is it something we say to feel better about tragedy? In the book Mans Search for Meaning he says we have to give meaning to the tragic event. We have to find a reason to live. Without meaning we will go from one distraction to the other never truly living again.
I absolutely believe this 100%.
Like in the Rocky quote "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done"
The problem is that the average person doesn't have the resolve to be patient and see how life turns out and give up.
