Broken Vase

Broken Vase

Thank you for the reminder... it is from the brokenness that comes our growth, beauty and strength

Nice story...

...but I often feel like a physical injury/defect would be so much easier to overcome than the ones in my soul.

Cracks

I know I have many cracks mentally and I have worked years to “plug the holes” with coping strategies. Holes indicate an emptiness a loneliness a lack of. Sunshine and light is warmth and kindness. I feel frustrated with myself at times for the holes I have not been able to plug which still plaque me. However if I like at where I started and where I am now it is quite the sunny day. Perspective is powerful and this is a new way to view my life and challenges.

Pain and Purpose

Today, so many experiences reinforced this lesson that pain leads us to our purpose….but only if we take the time to let the light shine through our broken places. Even if the vase has a crack, we still recognize that it’s a vase. We are who we are, cracks and all, still created with and for a purpose.

I felt

Better after listening to this. I suffer from a lot of mental pain because of my past. I seem not to be able to accept myself. I have grown so much, came so far and still I doubt myself. I have a very difficult time loving myself and I hope this will one day change because I do see what a wonderful person I am. I should just start believing it!
