The Thorn

We all have had a sorrow, a pain that does not seem to go away no matter how hard we try to "push it out".

Think of it like a thorn in our foot. We try to "push it out", but that increases the pain. We just sit there, because if we walk it hurts. We focus on that thorn and the pain.

I say" Get up and walk." Why? We will feel pain-yes, but we also will encounter life's joys as they COME TO US ON OUR JOURNEY. It is better than simply sitting and having only the pain.

Who knows... maybe as you walk the thorn may work itself out-just like your pain and sorrow.
