if i could take away the pain of the past i would.
i would hurt everyone who has hurt you.
i would turn the way of everyone who has turned away from you.
i would restore all that was lost to you 100 fold.
if i could...

but when i think, deeply, within my soul... i would not
for hurt is what has strengthened you and built character
the abandonment has taught you how to love in tough times
and loss has brought a deep sense of value to each soul you encounter.

i am amazed that life so ugly, has birthed you. beauty.
with scars and wounds and a beleaguered soul. beauty
with your vulnerabilities and insecurities. beauty.
with your failures, disappointments, and pain....
beautiful you are.

beautiful piece of work :)

growth can be painful
but if you learn from the ugly
then you see the beauty
