trust your struggle

Trust your struggle.

Trust your struggle, because without struggle, there is no grit against which softness can mellow, no darkness upon which light can shine, no marker for something more extraordinary.

Trust your struggle, because in those moments of adversity, you learn…my God, you learn more than you know, and sometimes it can take you years to understand the core of that gift. But you don’t think that, because at that exact moment, you are IN struggle.

Trust your struggle, because you find new corners of yourself, new ounces of strength, new colours.

Trust your struggle, it gives you the truest friends.

Trust your struggle, because you have the capacity to figure it out. You just don’t have to do it all at once.

Struggle with trust, love, and hope…we all of us are made for struggle, so that we may grow.
