You did the right thing by walking away, because I agree a slap in the teeth would have been my reaction too. ha ha ha.

I like how you present pain as a journey, as well as Green’s agreement that pain demands to be felt. I’ve also find pain to be a great teacher. For instance, it has helped me walk away from people, who might exacerbate it. It can be frustrating to deal with people who view you as lucky, while battling pain. So, I relate a lot. <br /><br />But Khaya Ronkainenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06286352495379234651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549689427675107575.post-44820810786591531542021-10-17T02:28:12.222-04:002021-10-17T02:28:12.222-04:00(hearts) XXX(hearts) XXXGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08814694362956456055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549689427675107575.post-48510544703226284442021-10-17T00:20:43.775-04:002021-10-17T00:20:43.775-04:00There are some people whom any attempt to enlighte...There are some people whom any attempt to enlighten would be a complete waste of energy. Re embracing the trip, people I know who have had severe pain for a long time say the thing that works best is to surrender to it. 'Embrace' seems to go even further than 'surrender'.
