Pain, we have all felt it and are all familiar with it. Whether it was physical, emotional, or mental pain, we have all experienced pain many times throughout our lives. It sucks to face a painful situation and it can truly break you, but you do get through it. The pain is only temporary; I am not saying it goes away, but it will not always be as painful as it is in the moment. One day the tears will be less, the heartache will not hurt as much, and it will be a little bit easier to get out of bed and face the day. Whether it is a break-up, the death of a loved one, the mean comment continuously said to you, or a job lost, it will get better. I am not saying it will ever stop hurting, but I am saying that one day it will not feel like your heart is going to explode out of your chest. One day you will be able to find a better significant other for you, reminisce on the great memories that you made with the loved one who passed away, realize the strength you gained from all of the mean comments, and find a job that is much better than the last one.

Pain is a hard thing to shake, but you can and will get through it. It takes time and does not happen overnight, but you will one day notice the difference in the you now and the you 6 months ago. You are so much stronger than the pain that is trying to hold you captive. You will get through this pain and past this pain. The beautiful part of the pain is when you get through it and you get to help someone else dealing with what you were dealing with. The pain is difficult and seems everlasting, but it is just a bump in the road.
