The changes in life are meant to make us stronger.

Yet, sometimes

They break us so much that we can’t be put back together.

We will never be the way we were.

We do have the ability to mend the pieces and rebuild from the ground up.

Things will never be the same. They will be different.

Change gives us a new perspective on life.

If we were all cookie cutters, all the same, what a bore that would be!

With each crack, break, and crumble you are given the ability to rebuild.

To create a better version of yourself.

You will put a higher value on life, love, family, dreams, and other people.

Because you know

How easily and quickly it can all come undone.

Take the time to rebuild your life.

The rebuilding is the journey and a life well-built is the prize.
