A New Strength

There are times in every life when we feel hurt or alone…
But I believe that these times when we feel lost and all around us seems to be falling apart are really bridges of growth.
We struggle and try to recapture the security of what was,but almost in spite of ourselves,
we emerge on the other side with a new understanding, a new awareness, a new strength.
It is almost as though we must go through the pain and the struggle in order to grow and reach new heights.
One of the hardest things to accept
Is the realization that things that make no sense To us now May never make any sense, but life will go on anyway -with no explanations or apologies, and that we somehow survivethe changes thrust upon us.
We even manage to grow…But nothing grows without rain, So when it begins to pour,
Let it flow. And when the storm has passed, Let it go.
Be kind to yourself;
Ask for what you need.
You are not alone.
