		<description>This is a wonderful guest post, I am subscribed to Quest for balance for sometime now but haven&#039;t had the time to spend on my reader lately.

I had to read both articles and loved them and the quotes. Great job girls!

I want to thank you Zeenat, for sharing you difficult married and congratulate you on your courage. 

I believe when bad things happen, there is a reason and lesson to be learned. You have to get past the shock and disappointment before it comes to you. This I think is a problem for many of us. We over think it instead of accepting we cant change disappointments or failures only turn them around as life lessons. 

That is sometimes hard to do but it can be done and over time that regret becomes an experience that has helped you to become the person you are.

		<description>@ Megan My Joyful Angel- Thank you fro such lovely words yourself sweetie. I cant imagine being anywhere but where I am today. I so love helping and spreading the love...I think one person trying to spread love, will bring together a lot and then a lot and then a lot....a wave of love..and the world would indeed be truly truly beautiful. Your courage and your writing have helped me so much too....more than you know :) Lots and lots of love to you. 

@Lena- Its so true...Loss somehow tests your true inner strengths. If in the face of adversity we are able to handle ourselves with grace and dignity, we have truly accomplished a lot. But believe me...it took a lot of loss to get to that point for me. But after the realization...those experiences are truly gems we can learn from. Thank you fro such a beautiful comment :)

		<description>Hi Lisis and Zeenat

Both of you never cease to amaze me! I don&#039;t know how I chanced upon you, Lisis, but through you I &#039;met&#039; Zeenat and feel so connected to both of you. 

Zeenat, thank you for sharing this - now I can see where our beautiful polished &#039;diamond&#039; came from. Hugggggggs...

Came across this quote today :

We can throw stones,
complain about them,
stumble on them,
climb over them,
or build with them.
~ William Arthur Ward

How true - and how blessed we are to enjoy the grace to become &#039;builders&#039;!
Love you both......
Corinne

		<description>I have been reading several blogs today and I do not know why this stuck with me (except that I watched the movie &quot;Constatine&quot; yesterday) but the portayed andgel Gabrielle says a line about that &quot;it is only in the face of horror that we show our most noble selves&quot;.
Isn&#039;t that so true - it is the trial and tribulations of life that forge us into who we are and only in the face of adversity are we forced to dig deep and search for our true selves in an effort to survive or cope and if we manage that, then we learn to thrive.
Sharing ourselves is a gamble, but I think it is safe to say, we are ALL the better for those who are brave enough to show us their scars. Then we are moved to show our own and together we form a community where no one expects perfection, or a brave front, just a chance to be ourselves.
