AOM Meditations: 013020

"I do not define myself by how many roadblocks have appeared on my path. I define myself by the courage I’ve found to forge new roads. I do not define myself by how many disappointments I’ve faced. I define myself by the forgiveness and faith I’ve found to start again. I do not define myself by how long a relationship lasted. I define myself by how much I have loved, and am willing to love again. I do not define myself by how many times I’ve been knocked down. I define myself by how many times I’ve struggled to my feet. I am not my pain. I am not my past. I am that which has emerged from the fire."
