Sometime Life is very painful but a famous person said "Even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and despite ourselves, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God."---Aeschylus. ( I ignore the God part or just replace God with the universe)
So I believe: Pain connects the heart, mind and soul together. Pain is a wonderful gift that transforms us all to a higher consciousness. With out pain we would all be lost. Being worthy of your suffering is the key to life! How can you truly enjoy sweets if you never tasted bitter?With every great pain and suffering come truth and self discovery, and hopefully inner peace and clarity. You can find true purpose in the mist of pain and suffering. Soul searching is apparent doing pain. Pain makes you journey inwards to truly find your inner strength and self.It is a true measure of a man or woman.Pain teaches us about our self in a way nothing else can. Pain, suffering, lost, grief, is life teaching and measuring stick.And I am glad to have been measure by it a lot. It helps me see who I am and where I am going. It helps me find not only my purpose but my meaning in life.Read this book called "Man Search for Meaning" it is awesome! It is about pain and suffering and finding meaning in it.
