rockin

A friend passed me these words out of the spirit of sharing, and I’d like to pass it on as I feel that there is much truth in them, and also the spirit should always live on (I being myself, of course couldn’t resist adding some..uh..’evolution’ to the words);

GOD allows life to be rocky. His challenge is not to let the rocks grind you into dust, or to change you into a rock yourself, but to polish you to become a brilliant gem

(in italics are the words I added myself)

Indeed that’s what life is all about ain’t it? We are faced with challenges that made life rocky and difficult. And if the challenges don’t ‘kill’ us, they make us stronger. But beware! Beware! One might turn into a rock as one becomes stronger. That is, heartless and without passion nor compassion. Or one might turn into a much more giving person. The latter is supposedly the hardest to attain. That is why they are gems I suppose.

To Lisya; thanks for the words. They are indeed beautiful. As you are :)
