Great Quote

Here is a little excerpt I pulled from an e-mail I recieved here a while back. The quote is from Rick Warren (author of The Purpose Driven Live). I pulled it out of an interview he did after he had become wealthy from the sales of his book at the same time that his wife was diagnosed with cancer.

"I used to think that life was hills and valleys - you go through a dark time, then you go to the mountaintop, back and forth. I don't believe that anymore. Rather than life being hills and valleys, I believe that it's kind of like two rails on a railroad track, and at all times you have something good and something bad in your life. No matter how good things are in your life, there is always something bad that needs to be worked on. And no matter how bad things are in your life, there is always something good you can thank God for. You can focus on your purposes, or you can focus on your problems."
