Silberhorn and Eiger from Mürren by Carl Millner

“You must always remember this,

that no matter what you’re going through,

no matter what appears to have come upon you that you consider negative,

it’s a blessing in disguise.

If you handle it in the right way,

and you work through it by not reacting to it,

it will turn into something so beautiful you can’t imagine.

I can assure you of this.

But if you react you may win,

you may get your point across.

That will only last a short while.

Then you’ll have to go through the condition again and again,

perhaps with other people,

and you’ll never know why you suffer so much.

If you observe without getting excited,

then you’ve passed that test and you will not have to repeat it.

But if you get angry,

you get upset,

you want to get even,

you’re always thinking about it,

and you have hate and animosity,

even though you move away from that situation,

you will meet that situation again,

and again,

and again,

until you learn not to react to it.”
