Pain adn Courage : The Balance

[genial.soul]

Pain nourishes courage. You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you . Pain is a part of the equation that is our own mortality. It is the balance for all the good in the world - and there is just so much good!

For every joy, we need something to balance, and that is pain. In other words, every pain is also a cause for joy. If you can find a way to rejoice in your pain, or at least accept it as what makes joy possible, please do.
