Have you ever noticed how the smallest annoyances on a daily basis seem to slow you down the most. But the biggest adversities tend to have a more (adverse) effect that usually is really good.

It prepared you for future adversities, and you wouldn’t be where you are if it never had happened. All that change wouldn’t have made you change to the extent that you did.
