"Pain is merely a gentle nudge from the Universe to guide you home.
Suffering is when you resist it."
~Tom Cronin
Is it possible that the greatest gift you'll receive this year
is the gift of acute suffering, struggle, pain?
Because when you get up each time you fall, you gift yourself with that holy-crap-realization
that you just managed to survive yet another worse-than-ever scenario.
It's such an adult-like thing to ask for when the child in you only wants to soothe over its wounds with big giant colorful band-aids, to resist what's uncomfortable.
I say grow up and fall down.
Then get up and keep growing.
Enter this playground at your own risk and appreciate the ride.
~Happy Holidays,
