Pain and suffering happened quite frequently in my life and I accepted that it was part of life and I had to survive it. It wasn't until I looked at my life and realized the pain always turned into som**hing beautiful once I realized the source,which was my own mind and bent perception that I could then make the pain stop.
I stayed in trouble and it made the paper almost every time. This taught me to 1.) stop getting in trouble (seems simple enough) and 2.) not to always believe everything I read and see in the media. I did do the things it said but the media doesn't tend to take the time to explain addiction and living on survival mode due to life circumstances.
I was in unhealthy relationships time and time again. I learned discipline, intentionality and courage to change myself first and foremost. I learned compassion and how to not become resentful about things that didn't work out. It simply wasn't meant for me. I learned to choose myself.
I learned about life and I grew up. I finally realized I couldn't do it all on my own. I found a support circle and I leaned on them. I leaned on my family and decided not to give up. Recovery is possible.
If you are struggling or need to reach out don't hesitate. You are loved and you are worthy.
