Pinch

You cannot refresh a flower without deadheading it ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The point of pain at the pinch of reality is always where we grow

It takes with it our eyes and while we are blind in the groaning our roots reach further unseen into richer soil until finally a different bloom so beautiful and fragrant that we even thank the shears that cut ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

James 1:2-4 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
