"Special tribute is due to those righteous Church members who do not weary despite sustained adversity, who regularly and quietly endure their special trials in faith day by day.  These individuals--and they are all around us----cope with the 'short and sharp' trials as well as the 'long and tough' ones. The very nature of this mortal experience is, as has been said: 'the only way to go is through, there isn't any around'.........

Elder Neal A. Maxwell
Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Not to try to "out-think" someone like Elder Maxwell....but simply to add one additional point of view on what he so eloquently said........I would say that there are some who (going back to sentence one above) "DO weary" as they go through their "sustained adversity"....but SOMEHOW they find a way to get up each morning and take further steps and move on down the road of their own adversity.  BOTH those who "do weary" and those who apparently don't....CONTINUE...THEY STAY "IN THE GAME".........I so admire those who continue to "participate" in family, church, career, service...EVEN WHEN they are FOREVER IN THEIR OWN GETHSEMANE....

Let's give both groups a standing ovation and thank them for being examples of courage to the rest of us.  Have a nice day. Jim
