Happiness
The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become once you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for and worth fighting for.

Why This Quote Matters

Author Unknown had a way of saying clearly what most of us only feel vaguely. This quote touches on happiness — one of the things we return to again and again, at different points in life, and find something new each time.

The best quotes don't tell you what to think. They give you a moment of recognition — that feeling of yes, exactly that. Read it slowly. Notice what it stirs in you. Then, if it feels right, save it somewhere you'll see it again.

Great words have a way of finding you at exactly the right moment. If this one found you today, that might be reason enough to sit with it a little longer.
