struggle – The Whimsey Angel

Blossom into something beautiful.

That little lotus,
took root in the mud,
grew through murky water,
made it to the light,
and blossomed into something
beautiful.
So can you.

When you’ve come through a storm.
Let the water settle before
you make your next move.

We can’t see clearly through turbulent seas. Reflection is only possible when the water is calm, quiet and clear.

Before you react, let the storm within you
and the storm around you settle.

We need the struggle.

An acorn needs the struggle from the deep earth into the light to establish its roots.

The butterfly needs the struggle from the cocoon into the world to push blood into its wings, so it can fly.

A baby turtle needs the struggle from the nest across the sand, to fire up its leg muscles so it can swim.

Our human struggles are necessary. They help us plant our roots, exercise our endurance and help us grow.

Without the struggle many things, including us, would never grow.
