Beautiful People

Today I learned that my mother-in-law had a rough day after receiving yet another blood transfusion. She has been battling cancer for 15 years. She continues to fight her battle even though it is no longer "just cancer."

I saw the quote below and immediately thought of her, I wanted to share it with you all. I hope that in reading it you are able to look within yourself to find the positive in all situations. It might not seem like everything is always "just right." But, I believe that it is. There is always a reason for every event in life, even if it doesn't seem true at that point in time.

"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
