What if your deepest wound could one day be the source of your greatest healing?
“Don’t get too comfortable, friend. Your wound will one day be your cure. And your sadness will be a gateway to joy.” ~Rumi
No te sientas demasiado cómodo, amigo. Tu herida algún día será tu cura. Y tu tristeza será la puerta a la alegría. ~Rumi
朋友，别太安逸。你的伤口终有一天会成为你的治愈之药。你的悲伤终将成为通往快乐的大门。——鲁米
Rumi reminds us that wounds are not permanent prisons but potential doorways. Pain carves deep places in us, and though we often resist, those spaces can one day be filled with light. The very sadness we fear may be the soil where joy eventually takes root. Healing rarely comes quickly—it arrives like dawn after the longest night. To see wounds as teachers is an act of courage, because it means trusting that nothing in our story is wasted. Our scars whisper of survival and hint at transformation. They remind us that tomorrow can hold more than today’s sorrow. Your wound does not define your end; it prepares you for a beginning you cannot yet see.
