Change
I think that I need to change one of my sayings…one used to be “suffering is how we grow”. But I think that’s too narrow…change is how we grow. Change is always hard, often unpleasant, and sometimes painful. Suffering can be a symptom of change, so it’s true to say that suffering is how we grow, but it’s certainly not the only way we grow (I never considered it to be exclusive, even if the phrase didn’t suggest that, although I’d never given it too much thought). I have to say that “change is how we grow” isn’t nearly as dramatic. It will have to do, though, accuracy is more important than drama.
