Breaking up is a natural evolution
by Usher Raymond

who isn't moving in the same direction
and at the same rate that you are,
it ain't going to work.

our cycle of self-imposed suffering.
The secret wisdom is,
"Life is not supposed to be fair."

Your pain is the breaking of the shell

There is a secret wisdom-of-the-ages
that holds the key to breaking our
cycle of self-imposed suffering.
The secret wisdom is, "Life is not supposed to be fair."
This is not sad news. This is GLORIOUS news!
Life is not broken. Nothing is wrong.
God has not failed, died, or gone on vacation.
The world is working perfectly. We just misunderstood.
Somewhere along the way, someone got the idea that
life was "supposed" to be "fair,"
and all the trouble started -
expectation, disappointment, resentment, anger -
a whole cycle of suffering that began
with the belief that life is "supposed" to be "fair."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
