• No one is immune to pain, and it shouldn’t be denied when it exists. The key is to know that you can lead a productive and meaningful life no matter what the external circumstances are.

And when you feel that indomitable strength, you really can handle any of your fears from a position of power—the kind of power that really can make good things happen.
