Struggles Can Break Or Make You

We all have struggles of one kind or another, some are the same and some are different. The thing to remember is that not all deal with them as you do. It doesn't make them or you a bad person if you are struggling it just means we are human. Struggles can break you or make you, the choice is yours. You can make it through them with God's help and guidance and that of family/friends if they aka f/f are supportive. Struggles can be caused by the past or the present, they can be your fault or the fault of someone else, but no matter who's fault it is you can rise out of those struggles and be stronger for it.  Life can hard at times, but even so you can choose to move forward and to learn from your struggles and to learn which choices to make an as which ones to avoid. Give yourself a break at times and take time to stop and reflect before making a decision and most importantly pray about them first and foremost. Choices and struggles sometimes go hand in hand, but they don't always have to; so be wise in your choices now and in the future and remember you can't change your past choices, but you can start making better ones from this moment forward.
