Pain indicates there is something wrong, whatever the source of the pain is it indicates something needs to be heeled. Acknowledging that pain is the first step, without that the pain does not go away, it lingers and the healing process takes longer.
I accept my pain, and feel my grief knowing that it will pass, knowing it will strengthen me and help me work towards being the person I want to be. I know what I want to be, and it’s not who I am today.
