Pain causes change. So painful experiences in life are going to be the ones that help you grow the most. Now before anyone gets mad at me for being negative. Pain can be beautiful Joyous and amazing. It can also be brutal, dark, and hard. But either way, these are the life experiences that are going to change you.
Positive Pain
The birth of a child can be excruciating, but it is also one of the most incredible pains I have ever been through that completely changed my life. In a positive way most days, but there have been moments I have wondered…..
Graduation from school or promotion. Achieving any sort of goal or dream is a form of positive pain. There was pain getting to this goal. Sleepless nights (or am I back on kids again), Moments of doubt, fear, and fatigue. Pushing through that pain got you to the finish line.
Negative Pain
Death of a loved one, Divorce, Death of a Dream. These are just a small taste of the negative pain and loss that we have experienced in life. Sickness, Accidents, Physical and Emotional pain caused by internal and external forces. All of this can leave you paralyzed and doubting why you even try at all. BUT, if you reach out, if you dig deep, if you take it moment by moment, breathe by breathe, you can turn the negative pain that is crushing into the positive pain of growth.
Anyone who tells you it is easy is a liar. But Pain is the life experience that has helped me grow the most.
