Joy and Sorrow!
Joy and sorrow are inseparable, together they came and where one sits alone with you at the board remember that the other is asleep upon your bed,” Khalil Gibran:

Value: Joy
Sub-Value: Trust, Faith
I have in my hands two boxes which God gave me to hold He said,
“Put all your sorrows in the black, and all your joys in the gold.”
I asked, “God, why give me the boxes, why the gold, and the black with the hole?”
“My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, the black is for you to let go.”
I heeded his words, and in the two boxes both my joys and sorrows I store
But though the gold became heavier each day
The black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black, I wanted to find out why
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole which my sorrows had fallen out by.
I showed the hole to God, and mused aloud,
“I wonder where my sorrows could be.”
He smiled a gentle smile at me.
“My child, they’re all here with me.”
