“Pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. ”

“Pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.”

“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding... And could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy”

“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.”

“And how shall you rise beyond your days and nights unless you break the chains which you at the dawn of your understanding have fastened around your noon hour?”

“Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain.”

“Much of your pain is self-chosen.”
