lessons in life!

Sometimes we must be hurt in order to grow,
Sometimes we must fail in order to know,
Sometimes we must lose in order to gain,
Because some lessons in life are best learned through pain...
Face the truth, it has no Bias

I received an email with the above piece of text. how true.

I have always run into conflicts with my family when they say we will provide you with all the comforts... i understand their point... they want me to be comfortable and lead a good life... but i'm not the one who would like to get anything just like that... I will rather rough it out and earn it myself.
If u get anything just like that... u may not feel the worth or the value of that thing... it could be anything...
