What’s the one piece of wisdom that quietly carried you through your darkest hour, when nothing else could?

The phrase "this will pass too" …..was something that reminded me that neither sorrow nor happiness is permanent.

It wasn't a platitude. It was a presence.

When I was wallowing in my own despair, at the bottom of a metaphorical deep, dark pit, I looked up, and He was there, looking down at me. That's all it took. I KNEW then, that at least ONE person in all the world cared about me.

THAT is all I ever needed.

@4meAndyou And who is that amazing person who lifted you from your despair.....?

@Renkon I THOUGHT He was Jesus Christ. He looked nothing like the conventional paintings of Jesus...but I couldn't imagine who else He might be!

@4meAndyou Wow, that’s a life-changing experience! Of course, Jesus doesn’t look like they painted.
