This used to hang on our wall as I was growing up. I would get mad at it because it sure didn't feel like I was being helped. But I'm starting to understand just why my path went the direction it did. Pain shapes people and great pain shapes people greatly. It can either destroy you or you can use it to shape you into a sharp tool. When you look back at all the synchronicities there truly can be no other explanation....God/Source whatever you want to name it, is all encompassing and all powerful. We can agree on that.
Some say they remember choosing before they came here the path they'd take so they could achieve what was needed to be created in the end. I often wonder about that.
