Sometimes we have to go through hell to get to reach our goal.
I agree with you that sometimes we may go through what seems like hell to reach our goal and I think that’s what the quote is all about. Thanks Lisa.
I like this quote. I reckon that we will all have had our fair share of hell by the time we get to heaven!
Life seems to go like that sometimes. I agree.
Well, I have definitely been through hell, so I would hope I’m working my way up to Heaven!

Interesting quote.
An interesting reply to an interesting quote. Thanks Tim.
