What are trials good for?

Sometimes I ask, why was that even put in my life? Why couldn't I have just avoided that all together and avoided where I am now? Well thats not how it goes. We are in this life to experience the good and the bad. The happy and the sad. The joy and the heartbreak. Still, in the midst of our trials we sit here thinking to ourselves, WHY? Especially when we are doing everything that we are supposed to be doing, why does this have to happen right now?
This is what I have discovered: 
Sometimes we need the heartbreak to understand the true love.
Sometimes we need to fail to understand the feeling of success.
Sometimes we need the hard days to make the good ones that much better. 
Sometimes we need to hurt to find out by ourselves how to turn to God to make it better. 


Just like President Hinkley said: 

A little easier said than done :)
