I’ve come to a simple truth about myself. People hurt and it kills me to have those around me hurt. I want to make it better. I want to make sure everyone is okay.
But sometimes people have to feel the pain in order to get better. To get beyond the hurt.
That is so difficult. It is difficult for them and it is most definitely difficult for me.
If I could take on all the pain I would. No, not as a martyr. Just because it almost hurts me more to see others in pain than to take the pain on myself.
It’s a crazy thought. I’m sure there are many others that understand.
I just needed to explain it. VOICE IT.
If I didn’t realize there was JOY beyond the pain then I know life would be unbearable. But I know the TRUTH and I know if we allow it JOY will come, no matter the circumstance.
