"It Gets Better"

Hook, line and sinker, you fell right into that rut. You know that comfortable bed that's easy to get into, but hard to get out of? Well, that's what ruts are like, comfortable beds. And once you find yourself in one, immediately start plotting your escape to effectively convince yourself of the fact that "It Gets Better."

Sometimes it feels like those dark clouds have intentionally singled us out for the sake of their own amusement as we continuously struggle with the "who, what, where & why's." Sometimes it is not what we go through, or as I like to say "grow through," but what we come out of that makes us the pillars, the convicted, the "Unflappable" Faith holders, the unique storytellers, the experienced teachers and the expanded wisdom seekers.

Growth is an ever important component of Life. We cannot simply go from "Point A" to "Point B" without having experienced some sort of growth. During those "Growth Spurts" are where we find ourselves going through/growing through the most. This is just preparation for the next level because "It Gets Better."

That job that no longer offers you a challenge or is just a means to an end......"It Gets Better."

Those unsurmountable bills that keep coming in......"It Gets Better."

That relationship that keeps you entangled because it is "what you know"......"It Gets Better."

The healing from a broken marriage and subsequent divorce......"It Gets Better."

That dead beat dad that perpetrates as your childs father......"It Gets Better."

That late or nonexistent child support check......"It Gets Better."

Those taboo subjects that your family refused to ever talk about......"It Gets Better."

The hurt from the loss of a Loved one......I heard "It Gets Better."

Economic strife and having no viable means to make a way out of no way......"It Gets Better."

Crossing the finish line in Victory, at the end of your race....."It Got Better!"

Start plotting your escape now and do not allow that rut to think that it has you forever in its grasp. Once you've escaped, go back on behalf of those that are stuck and become that pillar, that convicted, that "Unflappable" holder of Faith, that unique storyteller, that experienced teacher and that expanded wisdom seeker. And with extreme testimony, tell them how "It Got Better."

"It Gets Better"

You never get "over it" you get through it. If you use those experiences to grow ... it does get better.

Well said, Mr. Corey!
