In a world that often celebrates power, dominance, and toughness, true strength is frequently misunderstood.

They choose compassion over resentment and empathy over anger.
Today's quote reminds us that perhaps the greatest measure of character is not how much pain we have endured, but how we treat others after enduring it.
