Today I was thinking about why my guides say, “Pain is the wrecking crew that destroys the old so the new can be built.” It seems to me that when we are suffering we often go deeper and deeper into ourselves getting to the essence of what is important and the essence of what we fear.
This process can be transformative even while it is difficult. This greater depth can bring us in contact with feeling spiritual principles such as compassion for others, love rather than competition, courage to problem solve, and a willingness to change.
When you are suffering it can be helpful to ask, “How is this experience meant to transform me?”
