A little something to ponder

Wanted to share a quote with you that made me think:

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."

--Elizabeth Kubler Ros

Very quick post. Just feeling very thankful and fortunate for the difficult situations in my life. Without them, I would never grow as a person or learn compassion. Am learning the importance of appreciation for the present. Hope everyone is continuing to take care of themselves, and that you all have a fantastic day!

      Unfortuantely I'm not familiar with optometrists outside of Florida where I practice. American Optometric Assoication might be a helpful place to look!
