Taking the Hard Road

When my friend rapidly developed signs of cancer, I was left with a split path. One that took the easy way through the situation, distancing me and allowing me to escape into solitude, and the hard road that made me confront my own emotional blockages. What I found was the value of the most difficult path available, and why one would ever choose that road.

Is it sad when this meditation ended… A few tears came to my eyes sometimes we choose our hard, and sometimes it chooses us. When my dad suddenly passed away this summer, that’s how things felt. I didn’t use that however, everything around life at that time seemed hard! Hard choices choices that I could make , or like you said, take the easy pass… Thank you for reminding me that taking the hard road, doesn’t mean that I need to travel it alone. I am not who I was three months ago that I know for sure. I am also one who does not take the simple road because I want to be a light to others. Somewhere in this darkness may God show me the way is my heart is heavy my grief is hard and I feel like I and my light have dimmed just a little bit and that creates great sadness within me. Thank you once again for teaching me I can do this, and I know that others will be there just as I have shine the light to others. May they shine the light for me as we travel hard roads together

Love Robert Frosts poem the road less traveled. Lovely practical application.

💜Love can make us brave. I’m glad your friend has you.🙏
