"Seeing Past The Pain" Text
Seeing past the pain is a hard thing to do. It is so hard to see through the pain. If the pain is current, it is hard to focus on anything else. If the pain is physical, it is almost impossible to concentrate on anything else. If the pain is mental or emotional, that pain can be overwhelming. Mental and emotional pain can blind us from any good in our life. Past mental and emotional pain can make us look at the bad even in the good. It can make us see bad even if there is no bad in the present. Past or present pain can make us lash out at someone that did nothing to cause it. We have to be careful about that. When our emotions overwhelm us, we have to be careful not to take that out on anyone. We also have to be careful not to sit in it. Seeing past physical, mental, or emotional pain is never an easy thing to do. The longer the pain lasts the harder that gets. How do we see past the pain? I am not sure. I do my best to see through the pain. I have not managed to see past the pain. I try not to focus on the physical pain. I focus on it more than I like but I try not to let that be my main focus. I try not to let past emotional and mental pain distort my current vision. Depression and hurt creep back in. I am not always quick to try to push it out. I am thankful the Lord will not let me stay in that give up frame of mind. I am thankful for the ones in my life that honestly care about me. If you are going through any of this, do not give up. Keep fighting. Hopefully one day we will be able to see past the pain. But for now, let us focus on seeing through the pain. Let us focus on not letting the pain be all we focus on. I will keep praying for me and for you.
