Pain

Can you create a happy place in your mind when the world that surrounds you is unkind and full of pain? Sometimes moving forward and leaving the pain behind you seems to be the best option. IF only you could pack your suitcase and move into a happier place, but pain has a funny way of following you. Pain has a grip on you that does not let go so easily. Sometimes I feel like Pain is my friend. How much lighter and happier my world would be if I could say goodbye to pain. To care for myself like I was my own best friend. To walk a different way home and embrace the happy place I see in my mind. Walking away from you will not be easy, but it will be a victorious day and my tomorrows will be filled with a true friend…my happiness.
