2 Case Studies

Picture this two case scenarios...

Case A
An abused child... beaten by his father every night... His body is covered with bruises... Everytime he touches his wound or his friends make fun of his bruises.. he finds a quiet corner to cry.. His bruises are his shame... and signs that he is unloved... or even hated by his father.

Case B
A taekwondo National player... Goes for training every night.. Sustains the exact same bruises as the person in Case A... But everytime he touches his wound or his friends make fun of his bruises.. he feels so proud of himself... His bruises are signs that he's been training hard... A sign that he has talent to be selected into the squad.. A sign that Singapore Sports Council and national team appreciates him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In both cases, we look at the same child... with the exact same bruises.. but the manner in which the abuse was infliced totally altered the outcome....

Imagine yourself as God's child... God will never put you in a situation like Case A. Any kind of pain or abuse you are feeling now is inflicted because its necessary to mold you into a better version of yourself... You are the child in Case B.. Always remember that... and know that you should never carry the Case A mentality around...

Therefore, may whatever pain you are going through now empower you and bring you pride and happiness... don't let it weigh you down and cause you depression... Always carry the Case B mentality around =)
