     “Life is very interesting… in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths.”

                                                                                                – Drew Barrymore

     This quote was chosen this week to show that struggle is a part of life. When something becomes hard, do not give up. Keep pushing because it always gets better. There can never be a rainbow without a little rain. Everybody has to face hardship sometime in their lives but everybody gets through them. Drew Barrymore is right, life is very interesting, it seems like when something can go wrong, it does. Barrymore also recognizes that there are also many beauties in life. Being able to get through pain and becoming a stronger person is what living is all about.
