Mother nature teaches us many lessons. What is a diamond? A diamond which is the queen of jewels is nothing more than coal that's been under a massive amount of pressure for a long time. And gold, the king of metals, it's purified with fire. So, stress can make us something beautiful if we learn how to manage it properly. And as you said that means to accept stress with a grateful heart and to actually learn the art of growing through that stress. In order to do so it's important that we have a strong foundation. Because in life storms will come for everyone. Where there were little Swami's without a bank account or billionaires, whether were PhDs or never had an education, stress and the storms of life are inevitable for everyone. They come in different ways but the effect is same.
