Shit Happens...

Shit happens. You lose your job. Your significant other dumps you. The market crashes and you've lost it all. You've been betrayed. The people you would take a bullet for end up being the one behind the gun...could be family and friends you've known forever...sometimes it happens gradually - and sometimes it's all in one day...

Shit happens. And you feel like you're buried. You're screaming at the top of your lungs and no one can hear you. You have two choices. You can lie dormant in your pain. It will fester and mold and you will eventually die from it...or you can start clawing your way back to the surface...

Shit happens. You use every crappy thing that has happened to you as a stepping stone to move up. The momentum you create by taking the first step gets you to the next and the next and the next.

Before long, you will scratch the surface and see a tiny bit of light. You know you're almost there. Just a couple more steps and you break through. You feel the sunlight warm upon you...shining down on you. You reach up to the sky to grab it.

Maybe - just maybe - you weren't buried after all. You were planted. Maybe everything that happened to you wasn't shit after all...it was fertilizer...

Grow and Bloom!
