For Every Mountain....

Most often we walk around with scares of hurt like badges. We want people to see it, we want people to know someone hurt us, we’ve been dropped and we live in self pity. Hey been there done that probably have a few t-shirts to prove my visit, but let’s stop for a minute and reverse how we deal with hurt. Instead of looking at hurt like a fresh never healing wound let’s look at hurt as an opportunity for growth.

Let’s turn around, and let’s look at everyone that’s hurt us in the past. Mom, dad, family member, the supposed love of your life, the friend that was never supposed to drop you, the preacher that led a double life. Now just smile at them and wave and say “THANK YOU”. Thank you for dropping me not once but over and over again because each time you dropped me you showed me who was there to pick me up. You taught me who and what was worth having in my life, and when no one was around and you dropped me you gave me the will to fight my way back up.


The situation doesn't seem so bad now that it has been looked at an opportunity instead of a handicap now does it?
