bless the thing that broke you down and cracked you open because the world needs you open
Rebecca Campbell
A friend asked me over dinner: “Do you think you’ve got life figured out now”? I laughed and took a deep breath. Every time I think I do, life finds a way to humble me. So no, I haven’t figured it all out. Frankly, I don’t think I would trust anyone who says they have. We’re all figuring it out as we go. Believe me.
I think back to all the times I’ve felt broken, cracked open, ego shattered. Looking back, I have 100% conviction that I can draw a straight line from those breaking points to seasons of life that felt richer, more aware, more loving. More me. Those unpleasant experiences were necessary to prepare me for what was to come.
So now whenever I’m in it - really in the thick of it - the question that arises is: What new possibility is this preparing me for? Because I know in my heart one thing: the best is always yet to come.
