Pain is the gateway to love.

We’re living in a moment of time where we all are struggling. Not because of a virus, but because a virus made us aware of the veil we were all covering the pain that we felt inside. Pain is seen as such an enemy of the human. We create campaigns to fight against it, laws that forbid it and social action that scoffs at it. The hurt that can be felt by the injustice of the world can be completely debilitating and to many, it is. But, if we were to eliminate the pain of life, how could we ever remember what good feels like or learn what not to do to get there. Each of our journeys to the places we’ve been meant to go are filled with pain because that is where we get our strength to fight the bigger battles ahead. If we let the pain of today stop us, we will never move forward and will be stuck hurting. If however we feel the pain we’re feeling, and learn from it, we can learn to win against similar pains in the future with far more ease. Life is a gym to get stronger and the experiences we face are our workouts. All of us are strong, all of us can learn to be stronger and all of us have the tools to overcome obstacles if we’re willing to learn. All things in nature that stop expanding die and the pains you feel today is the growth you can experience tomorrow, only if you let it. Live Well ❤️
