If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adverstity, prosperity would not be so welcome.

Elizabeth: Hey, Mom, did you lose a yak track?

Chris: No, I still have both of mine.

Elizabeth: Okay. Bella found one on campus, and she was walkin' around at school today wearing one yak track.
