Trust the Process

I believe that there are times in your life.. months...years..were there is a need to tear yourself apart to strip down to the bone to go to pieces.
I believe that at some point life will demand it if you do not give. Some people only have to do this once others every three years every ten years whatever it happens to be for your path.
This strip down can often lead people down the wrong path when they fight it. Fighting it is pointless because it is a necessary so if you fight you either die or prolong the process.
My point when you embrace it I think it's like giving birth. You have this pain and journey that if you walk hand in hand with it. yes it hurts but the pain is that of a special kind. One that gives knowledge and wisdom of self. A pain that if you let it will rebuild you stronger.
The process is a journey I think has happened every five years or so. for me this time though I have definitely taken it by the hand even helped it out. I think there is more pain to come but I know the rebuilding starts at the moment you fall to pieces. It is just your job to realize you have to put the pieces back together. Money can't do that for you or friends or clothes on and on. It really is such a solitary thing. You have to be good with being by yourself for it to ever work. So I trust the process and I believe.
I believe that this country will be stripped down to its core and only then will it rebuild stronger with lessons learned.
If you are never hungry you never learn to survive. If you are never challenged you never stand up.
If you always have everything you will never appreciate anything.
In my head I fight the tradition and stereotypes. The path I'm on is ok for me. It's not a failure because it is mine and no one elses. Each day is my own. And choosing that makes me stronger, wiser, and free.
