Thought of the Day reflections often draw strength from writers who understood suffering not as an abstract idea but as a lived experience. Ernest Hemingway is one of the few writers who can be mentioned among those who have this insight so clearly evident in their work. Indeed, war, loss and endurance were the main factors that influenced his life and literature very deeply. The author of many great and beloved books, he gave us one of the truest and most long-lasting insights on human resilience: “The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.” The line, as a Thought of the Day, resonates through the ages, suggesting that suffering is common but blooming is individual. It does not glorify torment; it simply admits harm and at the same time provides the hope of healing. Hemingway’s words remain a source of sober clarity rather than easy comfort in the times of conflicts, uncertainties, and personal failures that the world keeps going through and which are repeatedly testing it.
