And the Art will set you free

Don't wait until you are through one of life's storms to express yourself, or until you feel strong enough. Make your pain your art, express your frustration or your confusion. Let it loose! In that way, you keep it from overpowering you, you release it's hold over you and in doing so, you clear the way for healing to come. Plus, you lift someone else out of a hard place by sharing it.
And you strengthen yourself for the next storm, which will come, by the way.
There is no one who escapes pain. But there are those who can turn it into something inspiring, so stop holding back!
