What if all the problems and worries were gifts?

This sentence got me through so many hard days and dark hours of my soul because I found meaning in it.

Maybe it is a lie but does it matter, as long as it helps?

Like that time when I got a speeding ticket. That was expensive, but I learned the lesson. Do not speed!

Or like that time when my ex cheated on me and I got my heart broken. I met an amazing man! He is absolutely fantastic. He is so much more than I ever knew is possible to have… He is the light!

Or another time when I did not get the job I wanted. I got a promotion at my current job and bought a beautiful home.

And so many other examples…
