‘Turning pain into purpose: The way you get up, when life knocks you down’ By Rikke Kjelgaard

If there’s anything we can be sure of it’s that life will throw us all a variety of challenges and that suffering will inevitably knock on everyones door. When this happens we are offered a choice in how we carry our pain and how we rolemodel this way of carrying to others. This story is about turning something painful into something purposeful. It’s about choosing how we want to be in this world and what kind of life we want for ourselves and then live that to the fullest.
