It is written, “we learn through pain until we evolve to learn through joy.”
Funny thing is, that some people hold on to pain like an old friend, and they cannot tell the difference between the open hand that lifts up, and the back hand that beats down. I pray to not be that person.
And I pray that I would rather be poor with a soul that is open to receive and express all the highs and the lows of this life, than the most successful and renowned professional that sold his soul and trampled over the remains of others.
