Why is it that most things that make us grow, cause us pain? From a pimple under the skin to bunions on the bottom of tired feet, somehow growth provides seemingly needless taunting to the human experience. Bringing contempt along with it, evolution hurts.
Memories of previous aches–
Heart
Stomach
Head
Back
breaking pain that leads to loose
Bowels
Tongues
Lives
crafted for forgiveness, repentance, re-member-ance…
The need to put
back together the things that with pain and deafening noises of
deception and broken promises
have been torn apart…
On the other side of the growth is brand new opportunity to heal…
