What does not kill me makes me stronger.

If I survived a calamity, then I shall gain strength.

Nietzsche does not think that all suffering will result
in strength; but rather he is suggesting one should take
suffering as opportunity to build strength.

Have an ongoing conversation about this with my wife.

Sometimes it's difficult to see how the strength (even just to hold on to day to day life) will come, but strength really does develop in adversity. Experience awakens you to the horror and beauty of the universe, and you find reserves you never knew you had; but the strength you find does not belong to you. It is something that is revealed, through great suffering. It belongs to existence, and feeds you in a new way.

One Critic said:

Describes the process of embracing suffering as an opportunity
to gain strength.

All these years my mentality was no matter how bad
your situation is, something good comes after.

“But I need solitude--which is to say, recovery, return to myself, the breath
of a free, light, playful air.”

― Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals / Ecce Homo

That is a beautiful Nietzsche 's quote.

It is the returning of your point
of departure .
Solitude is our confrontation of ourselves.
