A poem by Isabelle Sorrells
We can’t forget about the bad things.
We can’t throw away the memories that hurt
Or the painful recollections.
Without pain
We are missing half the story.
Because unlike bliss
Pain speaks the truth,
Teaches,
And allows us to appreciate the good things –
The memories that fill us with joy
When they are given to us.
What would the sky be without clouds?
