Pain isn’t always purpose—it can be a warning. Some pain shapes you for your destiny, but other pain comes from harmful choices. The key is recognizing the difference. Let pain push you toward growth, not destruction. If you’re willing to change, even self-inflicted wounds can lead to healing. Don't just endure the pain—let it transform you.
