COMPARISONS

If you've never trod the valley,

    You can never see the heights;

If you've never walked in the darkness,
    You'll never see the light;
If you do not climb the hill ahead,
    You can't look round the bend;
If you've never really lonely,
    You'll never need a friend;
If you've never failed and failed again,
    You'll never try your best;
If you've never suffered sleeplessness,
    You'll never know true rest,
If you've never stumbled through the clouds,
    You'll never see the blue;
If you've never suffered grief and pain,
    Real joy won't come to you;
For the one calls forth the other,
    As onward we must go;

Don't ask me how i found this out,

    Let me just say "I KNOW" .
