Life Is Suffering

"ALL OUR DREAMS CAN COME TRUE— IF WE HAVE THE COURAGE TO PURSUE THEM." ONCE YOU REVEAL YOUR TRUE SELF, NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO DESTROY YOUR CHARACTER. IMPOSSIBLE: THE WORD ITSELF SAYS I'M POSSIBLE — AUDREY HEPBURN Be yourself, because an original is worth more than a copy. LIVE your dreams Just remember You are just as important as everybody else. You are enough. You are so enough. It is unbelievable how enough you are. Life is Suffering

A two-panel comic shows a distressed red-haired girl crying under a shower while surrounded by colorful motivational quotes.
