“Beneath the clouds is the ground we call sorrow.  This sorrow is our earth, the dust of the ground, the very substance of life.  Unlike clouds, it is solid and firm.  Beneath the earth are hidden reservoirs of water, and this water we call joy, a joy deeper than the happiness of the clouds.  But, this water may not come to the surface on its own.  Therefore, one must labor to dig the ground of sorrow in order to tap into joy.” – Hieromonk Damascene
