Living with Pain

This morning I read something that deeply touched me for reasons I cannot explain. I want to share it. It’s about living with PAIN and shifting one’s focus away from this constant companion. It’s about reclaiming your life in the face of great challenge.

In truth, I cannot imagine being able to do this.

I have experienced childbirth, but this is temporary, even when extended. And it’s productive.

So far I do not experience physical pain in this ongoing and chronic way. I hope not to experience this in my lifetime.

I do know that – I can barely say the word – torture can teach one to move beyond or rise above an existence of fear and pain.

This is very difficult for me to write about.
