Pain

Suffering

Pain

Every flower must grow through dirt

Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors

Growth in painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong

The more you’re hurt, the more you’ll change

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn

Don’t let pain define you, let it refine you

The pain will leave once it has finished teaching you

There is no education like adversity

Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it

Change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change.
