This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 11, 2009:
There are different kinds of suffering. There is value in challenge, in adversity - we learn and grow and usually come out stronger, especially if we try to face the situation with awareness of the bigger picture. Suffering, as in feeling crummy about adversity, doesn't seem to serve much purpose except to make one feel worse. But letting go of that suffering, especially in a society that rewards whining, is easier said than done.
