PAIN





Woke this morning with a reminder of how miserable life is.
I think of the Nietzsche quote "That which does not kill us makes us stronger". I put that in bold because it is a powerful quote and means a lot to me. When I get out of bed and the feeling of a hot poker going through my foot hits me like a 10lbs. sledge. First instinctual thought is to quit, curl up in the corner and ask 'why me'. Then I realize I have been through this and survived, I am stronger from the first experience. I persevere knowing I must put the pain aside if I want to succeed whether is psychological or physical. I have noticed the more I learn to endure the less patience I have for those who do not.
