When we are faced with a crisis or struggle we often despair.
But it’s in this struggle that the best opportunities emerge. If we’re keeping our eyes open.
A crisis is an opportunity to change grow learn reflect and become better. It’s where we discover who we are and how we can find a new way we couldn’t have imagined before the crisis presented itself. It allows us to practice patience and acceptance and find renewed hope — which is the most beautiful thing.
When you lost your job it was an opportunity for reinvention and to strike out on your own.
When you lost a family member to the unrelenting grip of death it was an opportunity to reflect on that loved one’s wonderful life and for your family to come together in a way never possible before.
When you failed at work you learned to improve and grow better.
When you injured yourself you learned patience and new ways to be healthy.
When your children throw tantrums they are teaching you more patience and the power of raw emotions and the wonder of childhood and what happens when you lose perspective.
When your partner had arguments it was an opportunity to learn more about each other and grow closer and become better at finding common ground.
When you daily face the terror of the void staring at you face to face it is your chance to push back and assert your will and imprint your soul upon this malleable world.
And that your friends is beauty. It is the finding of renewed hope and growth when all else seems bleak and lost.
In the struggle is the possible if we dare to look. [LINK]

A crisis is an opportunity to learn, grow and be stronger. It is not meant to break people, but to make them capable more of dealing with other form of pressure. One should not focus on what is negative and work with the remaining positive aspect instead.
