Life
There’s something amazing about this life. The very same worldly attribute that causes us pain is also what gives us relief: Nothing here lasts. What does that mean? It means that the breathtakingly beautiful rose in my vase will wither tomorrow. It means that my youth will neglect me. But it also means that the sadness I feel today will change tomorrow. My pain will die. My laughter won’t last forever but neither will my tears. We say this life isn’t perfect. And it isn’t. It isn’t perfectly good. But, it also isn’t perfectly bad, either.— Yasmin Mogahed

Why This Quote Matters
Short. Specific. Hard to argue with. This quote about breathtakingly does not dress things up. It says what needs to be said and stops.
If it did not hit you today, save it anyway. Sometimes words arrive before you are ready for them.
Whatever brought you here today, you are paying attention. That counts for something.
