C.S. Lewis
C.S. Lewis suggests that the process of overcoming adversity and finding redemption leads to a more profound and meaningful existence. He implies that the struggles and imperfections of life contribute to a richer tapestry of experiences. Through facing challenges, individuals and societies gain resilience, compassion, and a deeper appreciation for the good. The journey from a state of imperfection to redemption cultivates empathy, understanding, and a more profound connection to the world. Ultimately, the imperfections and struggles experienced en route to redemption create a more beautiful and complex narrative than a life untouched by hardship.
