In order to grow and move towards more meaning in Your life, a sacrifice has to be made.

Because?

To start living a new life You have to leave Your old life behind.

With it, old ideas, old thoughts, old feelings. They need to go as well.

This is a painful process, no doubt about it.

This is why most people don’t do it. Letting go and trusting the unknown or the emptiness in-between is scary, dark and painful. And sometimes even lonely.

Who wants to do that? And why should we? You might be asking.

Mostly because of suffering. It’s better to suffer a lot for a short period of time then live a life of suffering altogether.

Short spurts of uncomfortableness are easier to deal with than a lifetime of pain.

And in order to really transform Your life, some pain is necessary.

Not because I’m a masochist and think pain is super awesome, no.

Just because we are human and we tend to hold on to things and experiences that actually don’t serve us anymore.

There is a death involved with change and letting go. And that means grief and sadness as well.
