“Things get bad for all of us, almost continually, and what we do under the constant stress reveals who/what we are.”
~ Charles Bukowski, What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire
It’s the hardest thing I’ve done, this path I’m walking right now.
In fact I’ve found, daily – to my bewilderment, that I can endure more pain than I’d ever thought possible. I sob, it brings me to my knees, I rage against it and then break into tiny pieces wondering how I can take it anymore, and yet here I am.
Enduring.
And something else…
In bringing me undone pain is also somehow stitching me back together.
I am learning to go beyond the pain to a place that is endless, timeless and beautiful.
A place that fills me up and allows me a spaciousness in my soul I could never have imagined.
Perhaps we must all first be broken, in order that we can truly heal.
I look forward to sharing this part of the journey with you when I am out the other side.
You’re in my daily thoughts, prayers and meditations.
Bless ♥ Nicole xx
