Run or learn?

(Found on pinterest)

As Rafiki said in 'The Lion King' to Simba, "Oh, yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it." This is very true. The past can hurt and be very painful. you might have gone through many things that have hurt you, or dealt with people that have wronged you. But it's important to learn from this, rather than run from it. Without your past, and all of the things you had to go through, you would not be the person you are today. Remember that! And you are wonderful and amazing the way you are. Things will always happen that can hurt you, people will let you down, and trick you. But it's okay, because it helps you grow. It helps you learn. Be positive! Still be able to find the good things of people. Everyone isn't sunshine and rainbows of course, and don't let people take advantage of you. But be the wonderful person you are, and shine your light on others regardless of what may have happened to you in the past. Be the AMAZING person you are now! You can do this!
