You can't rid the world of sorrow, but you can choose to live in joy.

Sorrow is with us not because we are bad at stopping it, but because it's part of being human. To rid the world of sorrow would be to make this world a perfect place. If there were no pain, how would we ever experience pure joy? We often take for granted the fact that our biggest concerns in life don't really make a huge difference in the grand scheme of things. Your boyfriend may have dumped you, or someone may have called you out for something that you said or did a long time ago. To quote Kelly Clarkson, Kayne West, and I'm sure a bunch of other people, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger". 


Living in fear and pain can break you. As children of God, as brothers and sisters, and most importantly, as human beings, to live broken would limit you to do what you've been brought here to do. It's like clipping a bird of its wings. Being grounded for them is a limitation within their ability to fly, not the other way around.Pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly. Unresolved for too long, you can almost forget why you were created to fly in the first place.


You were created to be loved. So for you to live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the other way around. Healing is possible. Loving, living, breathing, and being completely free of sorrow is possible.


Free yourself of pain, and refuse to be broken. We were created to love & live in joy. Refuse to be restricted, instead, live in flaws and your weaknesses. Deny your sorrows, and bask in your happiness.
