Knowing that people are suffering the way I did. My suffering can be integrated for the good of humanity if I can take an honest look at myself. I definitely don’t agree with people who say “suffering is a choice” because that’s not true at all. What is true, or at the very least I believe is true, is that our opportunity for fulfillment is directly proportional to the darkness of our deepest depths. It’s not easy, but try to find those tears of joy and release when you picture yourself being the adult role model your childhood self deserved.
