Hurtful but Helpful

It can be very difficult to realize it at the time but I am grateful to those people who hurt me. Their unkind words and behavior creates a powerful desire in me to move on and seek out something new. It always pushes me out of my comfort zone and allows me to focus more clearly on where I would rather be.

Just like a frog that will jump out of a boiling pot of water but will stay if the heat only increases gradually.

I don’t ever want to be complacent – so someone hurting me really helps me remember that there is true joy and satisfaction waiting for me!
