Pain is a part of life, unfortunately. You and I need to decide if we’ll be broken or wounded by our pain. Broken people find something of value in their pain and seek to make others . . . and themselves . . . better. Wounded people are often victims and usually look for people and situations that affirm their sense of victimization. Life is too short to waste it blaming others for anything! Let your pain catapult you someplace new —don’t get stuck in it.
