It had to happen. There are no shortcuts for learning, or growing, or healing. There is not one path that will show you a lighted road, full of a bright sun and just a couple of rain drops. There's no escape from the pain in a funny and easy way, and there's certainly not an important story that doesn't involve pain.
So you dive in. You dive into the uncertain and unpleasant path of tearing your skin apart until you get to your bones and feel what you have to feel. You scream and feel like dying and jump later into an indescribable numbness, to what once seemed to be an unreachable darkness. And you sink 'til you can't breathe.
Then you finally feel the bottom layer, and you choke. It's time to start the way up again.
