Under Grumpa's Hat

I did not write the following but it’s something that I really enjoyed reading. Hoping that you enjoy as much as I do.

Strength is not the absence of weakness;
it is the discovery of a way to overcome challenges.

Joy is not the absence of sadness;
it is the discovery of a way to find laughter beyond tears.

Wisdom is not the absence of mistakes;
it is the discovery of a way to learn from them.

Gratitude is not the absence of scarcity;
it is the discovery of a way to appreciate abundance.

Hope is not the absence of despair;
it is the discovery of a way to believe beyond hopelessness.

Faith is not the absence of fear;
it is the discovery of a way to trust beyond doubt.

Success is not the absence of failure;
it is the discovery of a way to achieve beyond setbacks.

Growth is not the absence of limitations;
it is the discovery of a way to evolve beyond stagnation.

And courage is not the absence of fear;
it is the discovery of a way to act beyond insecurity.
