Life is hard, but with every knock, there is the opportunity for something better around each corner. It’s the wise and brave woman (or man) who owns it, and moves into it with grace and inner resolve. 

• If someone butts in line ahead of you, move back to give them more space.
• If someone tries to hurt you, see them for who they really are, the hurting one.
• If someone attacks you, stand firm and see it as an opportunity to practice quiet strength.

Life will always give you what you most need to learn.

If you’re stuck in challenge, strife, competition, adversity, see it as a way of drawing out the best in you, and open up to it.

At the end of the day, growing is less painful than not growing. 

Be well.
