    I don’t know. That kind of advice is usually given by somebody who’s been through it and is on the other side.

    It’s like many of the survivors of Auschwitz and the Holocaust in general said that overall the experience gave them a lot more than it took from them.

    Of course, we’re only looking at the survivors and not the people who died, but it does kind of say that yes even if things are incredibly bad, if you survive them they can get better.

      This seems a bit of a stretch. But your general point stands.
