Patience and gratitude are virtues that must be cultivated in difficult times.

Once two children left their homes and went for a walk in a forest with giant trees. It was night, so they got lost and reached the heart of the forest. There they started a dialogue because it was night and they couldn't find the way out of the forest, although the path was there. The girl said, "Oh, our situation is tragic." The boy countered, saying, "It's temporary, tomorrow the sun will rise, and we will see the way back home." The girl said, "Oh, we are lost!" The boy replied, "No, everything is okay." The girl said, "We will die here in the center of the forest!" The boy said, "Tomorrow we will leave and return home." They kept dialoguing like this throughout the night as the moon passed through the sky until suddenly the girl fell asleep. The boy stayed awake and waited for the right moment when the sun was rising, and shook the girl, saying, "Look! We can see the way now." The girl woke up happy and said, "Let's go out of the forest, but before that, I want to plant a White Rose in the center of it. I want to remember it to always have hope," and so she did.

Both the girl and the boy left the forest holding hands.

Be patient, know that sometimes the way out is in front of you, but you don't see it because of the lack of light.

Listen to reason more than emotion, be practical, not emotional.

Be grateful! When you are at the bottom of the well, think, "At least there is water."
