At the deepest level, the work we do today is not only meant to help us in the present or future; it is also meant to soothe the raw spots we carry from long ago. A change in behavior that blossoms out of a tenderness towards our pain is medicine for the suffering soul. Each time we bring safety to our vulnerabilities, the wound closes a little more. Like a cut that needs to be cleaned and bandaged, a hurting heart needs to be cared for and protected. May the growth of today provide you with what the younger parts of you always longed for.
