Views On Suffering



Life hurts.



Every nerve



in my body



shoots out



a pain signal



all the time



even if



I am not aware



of it.



It is a constant state



of discomfort



even if I think



I am comfortable.



The causes



of this suffering



are too many and varied



to understand.



But, there are many practices



and ways of dealing



with this discomfort



in order to heal.



However, none of them



fully work.



I must not ever



give up though,



in my efforts



to rid myself



and others, if I can,



of this suffering.



That is probably



why we



are here.
