"There is no such thing as a problem
without a gift for you
in its hands.
You seek problems
because you need their gifts."
Richard Bach, Illusions.
That is the same message we learn from the pearl. A pearl is only formed in a oyster when an irritant enters into the shell. The pearl then forms around that irritant to protect the oyster from its contamination.
Isn't that life? Isn't suffering the greatest teacher? Doesn't it offer great lessons that change the course of our life?
Not that we would ever chose the path of pain but when we are confronted with it, remember that pain has the potential to open new doors that would otherwise remain shut to us.
