We have all been hurt, we are a species that have been traumatized from the moment of our birth. Once born you do not leave this planet without a few bumps, bruises or limbs missing. This is the reality of our shared experiences. Through our free will, we have the opportunity to experience the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Our mission is to bring everything into a balance state while being grounded enough to fully function mentally, physically and spiritually.
Rumi states ” the wound is the place the light enters you. what hurts you blesses you. Darkness is your candle.”
What a profound statement that requires us to take a deep breath, a step backwards and an open heart to address. We have three choices, we can react to our pains, we can respond to our hurts or we can ignore and bury them within us, knowing it will jump forward in the future demanding us to deal with it again. I have done all three in my life and I’ve learned the hard way that responding and surrendering or letting it go is the better path for creating a better future.
