Comments on: Pain And Suffering http://www.spiritualthingsmatter.com/2008/06/04/pain-and-suffering/ "He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God." ~Aeschylus, Agamemnon Tue, 02 Mar 2010 01:11:18 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Viola Jaynes http://www.spiritualthingsmatter.com/2008/06/04/pain-and-suffering/comment-page-1/#comment-2198 Viola Jaynes Thu, 29 Jan 2009 19:44:34 +0000 http://www.spiritualthingsmatter.com/2008/06/04/pain-and-suffering/#comment-2198 Thank you, Kate!

I found you searching for Gibran's thoughts on suffering. I seem to remember something from the Prophet about how suffering scoops out your heart so that it can be greater filled with love. Many wise and beautiful insights in this post. To be graceful/full of grace - something I'm hoping for. Thank you. Hello Viola – what a beautiful post.

I always appreciate your kindness and encouragement. I recently read that over 50% of all information on the internet is false. I want to be a part of the 50% that is true and positive. I keep thinking that by encouraging people to find greater meaning in their lives, that that simply can't be wrong. Thank you again. Thank you Liz, for your visit again to my blog.
