Quote

I suffer from everyday life.

We all suffer. It's part of life. The blessing is - while evil exists, Divinity does, too, and it is stronger.

The problem of suffering is: why is there the suffering we know?

We need to suffer, that we may learn to pity.

Suffering makes a people greater, and we have suffered much. We had a message to give the world, but we were overwhelmed, and the message was cut off in the middle. In time there will be millions of us - becoming stronger and stronger - and we will complete the message.

It's difficult to admit to ourselves that we suffer. We feel humiliated, like we should have been able to control our pain. If someone else is suffering, we like to tuck them away, out of sight. It's a cruel, cruel conditioning. There is no controlling the unfolding of life.

When suffering happens, it forces us to confront life in a different way than we normally do.

Suffering is a kind of ecstasy in a way. Having pain all the time makes me terribly, terribly grateful for every moment I've got.

Suffering by nature or chance never seems so painful as suffering inflicted on us by the arbitrary will of another.
