Seasonal Quote

I read this today and thought it appropriate of the season. Especially, considering my allergies are coming on strong.

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.

- Anne Bradstreet

It also speaks to the idea that life is all about perspective. We often become wrapped up in our daily situation, and forget that many have it so much worse. We should all be thankful for what we have.

I was sad because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet.

-Chinese proverb
