Bear Grylls Quote

A young kid came up to me in the street a few days ago. He looked me square in the eye and asked me: If you could tell me one survival message, what would it be?I thought about it for a moment. I wanted to give him a decent answer.Then I saw it very clearly.Smile when it’s raining, and when you’re going through hell--keep going.The boy thought for a moment.Then he looked up at me and said: It rains a lot where I live.We all know the feeling.Maybe he’ll remember the message one day--when he really needs it.
