Where have you been? What’s happened in your own life that’s not yet healed? Attend to that stuff so it doesn’t keep weighing you down. There’s always a way through the suffering, it’s the struggle to make it through to the end that’s both valuable – seriously valuable for when you do make it through – as well as the block to making it through. The block aspect hurts so whilever it’s still hurting you know you haven’t got through it yet. There’s a way forward, a way to the not-hurting-anymore stage so keep going!
Winston Churchill, in one of his war speeches told his people, ‘If you’re going through hell, keep going!’ His message is don’t stop til you get out of that awful place. I think it’s a reminder we all need occasionally.
