Cannot run away

The more you kick and scream, bite, scratch
and try to run away, the dark­er the skies will get.
You can­not run away from your pain
and you can­not out­run the storm.
By embrac­ing your pain
and bring­ing it with­in to heal,
you empow­er your own growth.
Accept what is, what was, and what is yet to come.
This is the path to inner peace.”
― L.J. Vanier
