Rebuilding: Looking at you through new eyes.

Me: I’m looking at you through new eyes.

Pain – You have been a friend in a way. You have forced me to seek out comfort. You have forced me out of the shadows. You have caused me to want to heal and to grow. You have brought me closer to God. You have helped me to understand my mom more. He has helped me to understand that life is simply being life. I don’t like it when you show up. Still, I grow each time I allow myself to understand that pain happens to us all. It’s nothing personal for you.

Silence – You have forced me to find my voice. You have made me relentless in my pursuit of my dreams. You are maddening. You make me want to try harder!

Fear – You have taught me that you are nothing but a liar. You have forced me to fight for my dreams and to get beyond you to experience true joy.

Anger – I have learned about patience in dealing with you. I see how much leaning on you has kept me back from experiencing the joy of life had for me. I have been forced to deal with the real reason(s) why I have been angry. I have been forced to confront and deal with disappointment because of you.

Doubt – You force me to question you daily. In so doing, this forces me to question ME. In so doing, I am learning to doubt you while believing in me.

I am learning to look at things through new eyes. I am appreciating all the lessons being learned. I will continue to learn from you. How about cutting me some slack for awhile?
