The Hard way out.

Going to hurt
Perhaps it’s hard to remember that hanging from shackles is painful too, when we see the dynamite come out. In the long run you’ll be better off if you grab the bull by the horns, and deal with the source of your real pain. I’m sorry it’s hard. You’re totally up for it. May God be with you.

We also need to remember that our metaphorical hands will grow back after we have them blown off with dynamite.

A gruesome but valid metaphorical point. On FB the point was made that change can be more subtle than this, I was expressing that Change is often hard and painful, especially changing behaviours that run deep. I find it encouraging knowing that we can change, even when it's hard. And I'm encouraged to think that I'm able to cope with that pain, looking forward to something better.
