When we learn a lesson worthy of the pain, we also learn the sweetness of pain.
Pain is a small price to pay for moving forward. And there is no moving forward without it. It is, therefore, our friend.
The sweetness is commensurate with the lesson we are willing to see and apply. And we can trust that there is a lesson in the pain. We can trust that there is sweetness in the pain. And we can do that while we’re still in the process of learning what the lesson is.
