Some sorrows, life experiences, tragedies, losses, or sequence of events can follow us for an entire lifetime…and that’s okay. As long as people understand much like a shadow on a warm, sunny day in your contentment, joy, peace and even stress-that experience, that pain; it’s always right there under the surface.
Some losses wound so deeply that others think you “look” just “fine” when it’s almost as if you should be missing at least 2 or 3 limbs so they can almost TRY to comprehend the significant impact of the loss you had.
Our pain is what makes us grow and makes us better, seek better, strive to be better, seek Him, The Most High for some relief. The problem with “getting better” is often times we have to “break” first.
Much like a hard workout breaks, literally shreds; your muscles apart. The next day you’re weak, wobbly and incapable of crawling out of bed correctly….these are what some losses are like…intensified.
However, if you keep on “working out” through the pain the muscles rebuild themselves, bigger stronger. No one says these muscles won’t ever tear, hurt, be sore or weak again but it’s going to take a whole lot more. A whole lot more! Now you have BIGGER, better, stronger muscles……Be like that muscle…..it’s okay to break, it’s okay to cry, it’s okay to literally burst down just make sure to not aid yourself in your self destruction. Think of the caterpillar….it eats so much it literally BREAKS…..but out of that seemingly destruction of “bursting” emerges a much more beautiful creature who literally has the ability to just fly away
