Clouds don't last they bring rain when we need it most.
They bring shade on a hot day. The storm they accompany may be just what we need to make a change. A change that may not have been able to happen without it/them. Pain is a part of the clouds and storm. Without them we may stay in a place we are not suppose to. It forces us to see things about ourselves. We might not have seen.
They teach us what we need to change or what we need to watch for and not repeat. I believe pain can be twofold a catalyst for change/of a force to stop you dead in your path. Those of us who choose it as a catalyst...do move foward. Sometimes, not as fast as we would like...but we are still moving and changing. Those who let pain stop them...never evolve. They stop themselves from allowing the change that they may need most in their life.
For me personally I have done both. The times I have allowed it to stop me are the times I needed it most to change. Now, I have allowed it it to show me what I need to do to make the changes. Although, being completely honest it is not easy to see your faults sitting at your feet. What is most important for is that you recognize what needs to change. In doing that you are half way to where you need to be. In all of this, our strength grows stronger as we make the changes to become who we are to be. On the FLIPSIDE you must remember that our strengths far out way our faults . As long as we don't allow the pain to stop us on our path.
