Growth is Pain

To want to grow is to embrace pain.

Growing requires stretching, breaking, and failing so that you become more. Growth can be forced upon you by external circumstances, which are never as kind as taking it upon yourself to start the journey.

A little pain for a little growth everyday seems like no pain, it can even feel like pleasure, while all the pain all at once can crush us.
