    “Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.” -Joshua J. Marine
    This is so beautiful quote. Life would be too boring if you will just sit there and live a predictable life. To enjoy and understand the meaning of happy times you must go through some challenges.
