Pain knows when it is safe to come out. 

Vulnerability requires space. How can I share if you will not listen? Pain knows if you have space in your heart to hold it. It knows if you have the capacity to understand it, to process it, to help it heal.

It is a gift if we can find others who have that space in their heart. Ultimately we must find a way to make that space in our own heart.

We start by removing what we do not need. It can be a chain reaction, as we let go of one blockage, we create space and light in our heart to address the others.

We can cultivate this space by listening to others. We can give them that gift. It will mean the world to them.
