"Knowing there is a light at the end of the tunnel keeps us going through it, but understanding the darkness in the tunnel helps us negotiate it. The full truth is that power comes with pain. Hardship is the neglected and misunderstood second half of the truth, and it completes the view. True spirituality is not about making you feel good. It is about making you feel real."
The Power and the Pain, Andrew Holecek. (via walkwhilereading)
