“And last week we also learned that suffering and happiness, they are not enemies. They inter-are. Suffering is made of happiness, and happiness is made of suffering. If there is no suffering, there is no happiness. And if there is no happiness, there is no suffering. It's like the lotus flower and mud. If there is no mud, you cannot grow lotus. And lotus stay there for some time and become the mud again. So looking into the lotus you see the mud, and looking into the mud, you see future lotus. So suffering is like that. Someone who has the capacity to go back to himself, and listen to his own suffering, and look deeply into his suffering, he will be able to understand that suffering inside of him... that carries with it the suffering of his father, his mother, his ancestors.” – Thich Nhat Hanh
