I walked a mile with Pleasure,
She chattered all the way,
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And ne’er a word said she,
But, oh, the things I learned from her
When Sorrow walked with me!
~Robert Browning Hamilton

Nancy Tyler says:
Sorrow is a great teacher.
I wouldn’t trade its lessons for the fulfillment of any of those shiny dreams I used to dream.
