I agree that it is okay to not be okay, but I am not sure if I would call being troubled "beautiful and empowering".

Being troubled is undoubtedly a learning process which may lead to wisdom and compassion. But being troubled is also an indicator that something within is out of balance. So we are guided to find that balance, the middle way.

For me what is beautiful and empowering is a mind which is still and a heart which is at peace. There is no need to be deeply troubled.

Peace
