It's hard to see it while the crisis is happening, but reflecting later, it's easier to contemplate what happened, why, and what you did to get over the situation, what you learned from it, and perhaps even recognize patterns that aren't serving you to work on to change for the better.

It’s hard to see it while the crisis is happening, but reflecting later, it’s easier to contemplate what happened, why, and what you did to get over the situation, what you learned from it, and perhaps even recognize patterns that aren’t serving you to work on to change for the better. We all deal with crisis. We all have our stories. It’s what we do with these things that can make them an opportunity or not. I love what Tak0yakii said below about how some of those moments lead to a better and healthier life, waking us up. It’s so true! Been there, done that, and while I cannot smile upon some of the things that happened in my life, I can, however, say thank you to those events because they’ve all made me who I am today. And I like who I am today and the person I am still becoming!

These downright hard and trying time help us to not only create awareness within ourselves, but also on how to guide us into a new stage of life. It helps to pick us up again, build resilience and grow compassion for ones self. Sometimes these rock bottom moments are what ultimately change the trajectory of our lives for the better and even more so the healthier. And for those crisis that have knocked me down and shaken me to my very core – I thank you for waking me up and bringing me back to earth. I thank you for providing a space for me to process what has occurred, and what I need to do next to get me through this day, this year, this month, this moment. I thank you for guiding me towards becoming a better human, a more functioning adult and a more connected individual. Thank you!
