Is Pain Meant to Be? Should We Suffer?

I was in pain yesterday, it is emotional pain.  I have sent this video to my niece who is in constant physical pain.  It is a good reminder to relax and allow.

How do we know we need our pain, it is happening.  How can we know it is not necessary?

The pain I am feeling is inspiring me to work for the greater good, I feel empathy deepen in myself.  It joins me to others and I choose to care more for people.  The place I feel the pain is in my heart.  I find the centre of it.  Mentally follow that pain to where it moves to the least of it.  What surface did that cover?

So I am at peace with pain.

Byron Katie shows how to do The Work on the pain.
