He wraps it up in a problem.
The the bigger the gift that you have coming, the bigger the problem it will be wrapped up in. The wonderful thing is that if you always look for the gift for something good, you will always find it.

Need to move ahead. Imagine that this lesson has been sent to you to help you to be successful in the long term. Imagine that this difficult situation that you are dealing with has been sent to you to teach you something that you need to know to become better and.
