A Thought to Ponder
I invite you to think of a time when you were in pain. Imagine this moment and feel the intensity which surrounded you. Imagine the heartache. Imagine the disconnect which you felt between you and those closest to you. If you are reading this, then I would assume you made it through another day. Despite that moment of weakness, you found the strength within yourself to move forward. When all appeared to be lost, you found the courage to move forward. Many a man allow such an albatross to weigh them down, distort their beliefs and sometimes, end their life. I thank God that you didn’t because that means you persevered. I also thank God because you understand the truth: it takes a walk in the darkness to ignite the fire burning within you.
All training is a sacrifice.
- Jack Donovan
Whenever we believe all is forsaken, our souls are enduring a struggle which forces us, as human beings, to abandon something in ourselves in order to gain depth within our psyche. In order to better ourselves, we must give up the weakness in our lives in order to gain that which is needed to gain transcendence of who we are. If we refuse to give in, with all our hearts, the soul shall become stronger than it ever has been, leading to what we can be.
