No pain no pearl

A clam only produces a pearl through pain and suffering. It gets an irritant in its shell and keeps rolling the irritant around until it becomes a smooth round pearl.

What are some pearls that you have as a result of some irritant, affliction, or suffering?

Well, having mental illness has led to me helping other people with mental illness. Being a drug addict and an alcoholic has led to me helping other drug addicts and alcoholics.

I've even had drug addicts in a treatment center tell me that I help them out more than professionals did.

Do you have any testimony about how you suffered something that led to you being able to help someone else?

Are there any pieces of wisdom you've gained from suffering?

If so, thank you for sharing! :)
