“Your body speaks to you through pain. It says, Ouch that hurts! If you’re smart, you listen and respond. You do what you need to heal and recover.”

“This has become my approach to life: Accept what I can’t change and choose to change everything else. I wasn’t always this way. I found out the hard way that our lives are defined by our relationship with Change.”

“We lose our way. This process unfolds simply and predictably over time: • Change appears in the form of something unforeseen. • We feel uncertain, anxious, frustrated, worried, and fearful at this unexpected turn of events. • We resist Change by creating stories of how we think things should’ve turned out. • Our stories cause us to suffer because they are incongruent with reality. • Suffering is disorienting and makes us give up our power of free will. • When we feel powerless to choose, we abandon ourselves and feel lost.
There’s no telling what we’ll do when we feel lost. We spiral. We waste precious time. We fall out of alignment with ourselves. We block our blessings. We make unclear choices. We subvert our best interests. We act out in fear. We numb. We refuse to feel our feelings. We bury our love with resentment. We reach for any coping mechanism possible. We fall from grace. These are all attempts to protect us from pain. They are also the birth of suffering. And that is something far worse because we choose it for ourselves. Even when it’s the last thing we want. THE FIRST ARROW It was the most intense physical pain I’ve ever felt.”
