Quotations
Suffering
Behold the man who shields his family from all suffering. Has not his body become a willing vessel for affliction? Without good men to hold it up, the family house will fall when misfortune descends.
- Scriptures
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

come in future.
