Wow

Via a friend's blog,

"He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God."

- from Robert Kennedy's gravestone, quoted from Aeschylus.

I identify deeply with this sentiment/truth, and am reminded by it to be grateful that I haven't felt this way as much lately.
