One of the dialogue by Francis Underwood, in the opening scene of the Netflix drama series "House of Cards" goes like this,
There are 2 kinds of Pain. Sort of pain that makes you strong. Or useless pain, the sort of pain that's only suffering. I have no patience for useless things. Moments like this will require someone who will act, who will do the unpleasant thing, the necessary thing. There. No more pain.
True. I cannot agree more to this viewpoint.
It's left to our intelligence to choose the kind of pain we have to bear and the duration we need to suffer and the manner in which we choose to endure the pain. Everything is in our hands.
The sort of pain that makes us stronger, physical/emotional/mental, no matter which one, is always good. It's food for enhancing our strengths and abilities further. But the kind that makes us feel miserable, that constantly deteriorates us in all realms (physically/emotionally/mentally), is USELESS. And such pains, don't deserve our attention more than a prick of the needle gets. You say Ouch!! , throw away the needle and move on. That's the maximum attention such pain deserves. And that's the maximum attention people associated with putting us through such moments deserve too.
So, don't run away from Pain, it is necessary to one's life. But keep yourself protected from unnecessary suffering. There is a big difference between these 2 - Pain & Suffering. The sooner you learn to handle them, the better you will enjoy your life!!
