Every person, without exception
Seeks pleasure rather than pain
Wishes to be in smooth life than in troubled one.

However
There is something that cannot be obtained
In pleasure or good circumstance.

It is a paradox of life.
That there is something given to us
Only when in unwanted situations.

Adversity and hardship
Bring evolution
To human beings and their life.

In Trials
A new future is hidden
To the negative reality
The key to leap forward is entrusted.
