Notes About The Poem

" SUFFERING " MY PHOTO, ©

 

Suffering and the Wise

There is a great difference in how suffering is seen by

The common man and by the wise:

The first perceives it as a calamity threatening to destroy him

The second regards it as an opportunity to grow and to thrive!

Tom Cunningham June 4, 2021 at 12:45 AM Words of wisdom Demetrios, reminds me of Einsteins quote, failure is the road to success. Tom Demetrios Trifiatis June 4, 2021 at 2:52 AM Since I have not much time to read the quotes of the wise, I endeavor to write my own quotes, my dearest friend, Tom. Of course, they are not as wise as Einstein's but they are mine. Hahaha. Thank you very much for visiting and commenting. Blessings.
