Sometimes life applies a lot of heat and pressure. It really stinks when it's all at the same time. As if one thing happening was not enough, life decides you need one more helping.
But the thing about being pressed is you find out what you are really made of. How strong are you, really? How much can you bear? Being pressed allows you to realize a part of yourself that you would not have known otherwise. And I should know. I've been through these times once or twice. While in the situation it is often hard to gain perspective, I know from experience that the ugly bits of life make us wiser, stronger, and are opportunities to grow. We just have to try and see it that way.
It's times like these that you have to dig in your heels and refuse to succumb. Grow up. Face and accept reality and deal with it like an adult.
