Developing character
What is it about hearing or reading a single simple quote? Anyone who has ever been moved by a quotation, knows that it has the power to change a day, a life, a world……
“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved” Helen Keller
I love this quote – I have printed it off to remind myself what all the suffering was for – to make me a better person. Thanks so much for your blog- I love reading your posts and have learned so much 🙂
