"Let me fall if I must.
The one I will become will catch me."
Baal Shem Tov
I love that quote!
Falling down has been a recurring theme on my blog since I have been through it so many times since JR passed away. In my case, the one I will become is the part of me that picks myself back up after I have fallen down. It is a rare occasion that I can catch myself before falling down.
I've reached the place where I embrace falling down since there is always a lesson in the experience.
The experience itself is part of becoming the one I will become because of the lesson.
If I don't allow myself to fall down when life becomes difficult, the opportunity to analyze the situation and reassess my direction would not happen. Healing would probably never happen.
Let me fall, but learn to analyze and pick myself back up quickly.
