Embracing the challenge

“A precious opportunity is presented when you think you just can't handle whatever is happening. It's too much. You look in the mirror and all you see looking back at you is a gorilla. You have no choice except to push it away – and there really is no ‘away’ – or you embrace it.” – Pema Chodron, When Things Fall Apart
“Today, I face the difficulty that is before me. I understand where the discomfort resides. That, even if I avoid the encounter, the tension carries on within me. With faith and courage, I embrace it. I bring it into the conversation, into action. I bring it into the light of healing and resolution.” - Rev. Scott
