Passage 5

In English

When we meet with difficulties and when we come across sorrow, we should take courage and we should use whatever strength we have, in a good and appropriate manner, and face the situation bravely. Man’s life consists of ups and downs, man’s body also consists of ups and downs. This is only natural. It is a characteristic feature of things in nature that they go on changing continually. If there is no change, human nature itself has no value. If there are no difficulties in one’s life, life itself will not work. If there is no sorrow, if one does not meet with sorrow, there is no value for one’s life. If there is no death at all, even a mother cannot show affection and love to her child.
