I just also really want to repost this quotation because I love it too.

"But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer."

I think I love it because I'm reminded of a woman who once worked at my high school. When she suddenly passed away during my senior year, my entire school was shaken. We had all loved her, and I wept because of that loss. During her funeral, one thing her husband said that really stuck with me for the past 7 years is this: that as he looked through her torn and well-loved Bible, he found that she had underlined every instance of the phrase "and this too shall pass".
