Motivational Minute (12_76)



Quote of the day:

"The pain passes, but the beauty remains." -- Pierre Auguste Renoir

Consider:

Here is the story behind the quote.

The great French artist Renoir, in his later years, suffered severely from arthritis, which affected his hands so badly that it was only with the greatest difficulty that he could hold a brush. He struggled on bravely with his painting in spite of the pain.

A friend once asked him why he continued to paint when the physical agony was so great. Renoir replied, "The pain passes, but the beauty remains."

How true that is. Surely there is an attitude here which can be applied to many difficult situations in our own lives.

Wishing you all the best,

Coach Dana
