Summary
“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.”
Not every day is going to be a good day. But where there is pain, there is opportunity for growth!
What’s troubling is that many of us don’t recognize that opportunity.
We let our emotions swallow us whole – we let pain crush us – when all along, we can be harnessing pain to become stepping stones to success.
Isn’t it true that the current norm is to drown away our sorrows? Because that’s what society is asking of us? Because that’s what puts food on the table, clothes on our backs, roofs over our heads, glowing recommendations from our bosses?
“You’re not getting far if you don’t suck it up!”
We’ve yet to realize that by bowing to the pressure, we do more harm than good.
What makes the passage powerful is that it speaks of what we, as a society, fail to see:
It’s Okay to Not be Okay!
We need to recognize that everyone has troubles. We all go through cr@p! And that’s OKAY!
Because beyond what appears to be a crumbling world is a place of renewal, redemption, a COMEBACK that’s worth all our troubles.
Recognize the loss of a loved one to see that time is better spent with family.
Recognize that illnesses are a sign of our mortality, and understand that the life we have today should not be taken for granted, and is best enjoyed when in good health and good company.
Only when we recognize our pain AND the prospect of a better future can we make the most of our lives.
Tune in to this week's episode to learn more about validating ourselves in light of the challenges we face, and making the most of our lives by understanding that it’s Okay to Not be Okay.
