Pain is a part of life. It’s what makes us human. It shapes us the same as love and laughter. You don’t have to forget what happened in the past, but you cannot let it destroy you. Conquer the pain; don’t let it conquer you. They say that when the going gets tough, the tough get going. But sometimes it’s hard to move. So during those times, cover yourself with kindness, meditate on your hope, and go easy on yourself – at least until you see the first glimmer of strength return. Then rise to your feet with confidence, knowing that you’ll gain strength with each step forward you force yourself to make. One step at a time, one foot in front of the other, you can get through your current troubles, one way or another.
