Complexion

Many times we as humans want it to be one way when in reality its the other. We'll gnash and wail, do the whole thing and then many will get straight back to doing the same expecting results different. That said lets use this thread to speak on lessons you learned through pain. I'll set it off with this:
You have no enemies in this realm, only teachers.
Seeing them this way means you learn so much more about the events and your role therein because (at the end of the day, beginning and mid) you are responsible for everything that happens because it all plays out inside your awareness. Seeing them as opps and the rest means you skip this vital aspect and, 9 times out of 10, end up in the same situation as life presents the bill for those who think they can skip school when class is in session.
What turned your coal into a diamond? It certainly hurts in real time but the results speak for themselves once you're shining.
