There comes a point in life when you have to release all past hurts, pains, disappointments, and even betrayals and look at things in a different perspective. It is very crucial that we heal from everything that we encounter. Our test and trials drive us to our purpose only if we allow. Tears become a way of release. Betrayals force us to become more confident as we learn to build a solid foundation on which we stand. Disappointments help us find our true identity. We are now mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually ready to be an example to the next. And that point, my friend, is called the shift.
