Descent NOT Ascent
Every big breakthrough in your life will first require a descent into the underworld, where you will be forced to face exactly the things that you least want to face. Every priceless gift you gain in life will first demand a sacrifice, like of your outworn habits, beliefs, or ideas about who you are and how life should be. The greater the price you pay, the greater the gift your soul will gain from the experience in the end.
