The Noble Beating

"With every blow I received, I understood a little better that pain and suffering do not necessarily degrade or embitter you, that they can also energize, empower and even ennoble." - Samuel Pisar, survivor of multiple Holocaust concentration camps

No experience of mine can compare remotely to Samuel's plight... it's well enough to note that when we're beaten, we can curl up, or rebound vigorously to inspire ourselves and others.
