When it it time for us to grow we get
restless. When it is time for us
to move forward we get tense. When
the time comes for us to let go of the
things we know are holding us back, all
hell breaks loose. Unfortunately,
we sometimes misunderstand what we are
feeling and use it as a reason to stay
where we are. Nothing forces us to
move faster than pain.
Restlessness is pain. Tension is
pain. Hell breaking loose is a
sign that pain is on the way. When
we are in pain we must do something to
make ourselves feel better. And if
the old remedy does not work, we must
try something new. Too many times
we have cut ourselves down to fit into
the situation. Fixing ourselves to
stay where we are is the very source of
our pain. If we allow ourselves to
live with a constant, dull ache, it
means we are not getting the message.
But you can be sure all dull aches
eventually turn into a throbbing pain.
