If your life just falls apart early on, you can put it together again. It's the people who are always on the brink of crisis who don't hit bottom who are in trouble.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Crises are part of life. Everybody has to face them, and it doesn't make any difference what the crisis is.
I think it's about not just the crisis you're in, but how do you get to the other side? How do we heal? How do we survive this experience while remaining hopeful instead of filled with despair? That's what interests me.
Life is a succession of crises and moments when we have to rediscover who we are and what we really want.
Life never works out the way you think it will. But you just have to deal with it.
We have to remember that no matter how much hardship we go through in our life, there is always going to be that fragile place in our heart.
To some degree we all find life difficult, perplexing, and oppressive. Even when it goes well, as it may for a time, we worry that it probably won't keep on that way.
Life isn't meant to be easy. It's hard to take being on the top - or on the bottom. I guess I'm something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things... Life is one crisis after another.
There are so many difficult things we're living through in the world today, so many horrible events, but we cannot let them stop us. No matter what happens, I feel you must move forward with optimism and not get totally sideswiped.
Life is hard and it gets worse and worse and worse.
I really do think that any deep crisis is an opportunity to make your life extraordinary in some way.
