We may not believe that when the wind is howling, blowing so hard the trees are bent over, rain is pounding, lightening flashing and thunder rattling the walls. It doesn’t matter how bad the snowstorm, thunderstorm or hurricane is, they all end.
When we are in the midst of a big struggle or challenge, we tend to focus solely on that, which is good from the standpoint it’s getting all our energy for resolution, but the flip side is we start to feel this is the only thing in our life and it will never end.
We cannot prevent storms from coming into our lives, but we can remind ourselves that they never last forever.
And remember that some of our greatest growth opportunities were the result of some of the biggest storms we weathered.
Embrace the storm, it won’t last, and remember –
you don’t get the rainbow without the storm first.
