“I asked for health that I might do greater things, I was given infirmity that I do might do better things…I asked for riches that I might be happy, I was given poverty that I might be wise… I asked for power that I might have the praise of men, I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God…. I asked for all things that I might enjoy life, I was given life that I might enjoy all things… I got nothing that I asked for, but everything that I hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men most richly blessed.”
