Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.

Maybe counsellors should re-direct their patients to this section! It may have a therapeutic effect on them."The Road goes ever on and on
------------------
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say." - Extracted from the book "Lord Of The Rings" by JRR Tolkien.

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by frost.

A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken:
The crownless again shall be king." - Extracted from the book "Lord Of The Rings" by JRR Tolkien.
