Have you ever looked back on the one thing that was the worst thing that you have gone through and have been thankful that it happened?
Have you ever looked at a broken heart and been glad that it is there?
I woke up and looked at my life and saw what it would have been if everything bad had never happened....it wasn't nearly as good.
Even though I am holding on to the strings of my past because they are still in my present and I want them to be in my future I am so glad that they are strings that I can unravel them, cut them, or braid them to make them stronger or something new and exciting.
I am glad that life hasn't been easy, I am glad that my heart has been broken and I am glad that I can make the best of it......and most of all I am glad that I am still standing and moving forward.....because the past can come with me but I can't go back to the past.
My 'worst thing' sometimes seems to be the best thing that could have happened to me. Before it, I was afraid to take risks and well.. just afraid, but once I got through that, it was like every else would just be cake.
ReplyDeleteGranted, I've had a pretty good life, and haven't had to face near the hardship others have, but still... having been through what I have really has left me stronger to face what life may throw.
