The gift of brokenness

Is it possible that sometimes that something has to be broken in order for mending to occur?

Perhaps we get stuck in a certain form, and can only stretch and grow and become more by cracking the form we have taken on.

The breaking hurts. And the one who takes the action to split things asunder carries the pain of that in her bones.

The possibility is there that she can also own gratitude for the strength to take the action that freed herself and also others to create new shapes that serve them well at this new time in their lives. Happiness out of the ashes, so to speak.

That is my hope.

The pain and the joy together make us who we are. Together we move forward, still holding the energy of who we were as we become who we are.
