Pain, you just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it.....heals.

There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just breath deep and wait for it to subside.


 Most of the time pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it. Hits way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain, you just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it and life always makes more. 


Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life's cruelest irony. 


what does it mean to really take care of yourself? To be vulnerable and wary of those vulnerable areas that we aren't already protected from? Sometimes to take care of ourselves we have to let Him rip us open and dig out the dirty stuff and clean us up and then heal us so we can be whole. 


Although the more I think about it, the less I think we can really be "whole". Because if we were to actually attain that, then would we need Him? would we need anything?
