“This is the thing with any painful circumstance We keep trying to be the person we were before it, Denying that painful experience, But all this does is stunt the person we are growing into. Hurtful events always transform us in some way. A far stronger, compassionate being is born from every blade That cut to our heart… this is what we gain when we accept our pain. We regenerate with a brighter inner flame As we seek our light through the shadows.” — Christine Evangelou
This is the thing with any painful circumstance
We keep trying to be the person we were before it,
Denying that painful experience,
But all this does is stunt the person we are growing into.
Hurtful events always transform us in some way.
A far stronger, compassionate being is born from every blade
That cut to our heart… this is what we gain when we accept our pain.
We regenerate with a brighter inner flame
As we seek our light through the shadows.
