There’s no such thing as a painless lesson, they just don’t exist.
Sacrifices are necessary, you can’t gain anything without loosing something first.
Although, if you can endure that pain and walk away from it, you’ll find that you have a heart strong enough to overcome any obstacle.
Yeah, a heart made fullmetal.♥
