Valentines Day Pain Too Much

More From Khalil Gibran

Grief does not end and love does not die and nothing fills its graven place. with grace, pain is transmuted into the gold of wisdom and compassion and the lesser coin of muted sadness and resignation; but something leaden of it remains, to become the kernel arond which more pain accretes (a black pearl): one pain becomes every other pain ... unless one strips away, one by one, the layers of pain to get to the heart of the pain - and this causes more pain, pain so intense as to feel like evisceration.

I say too much of what, he says too much of everything, too much stuff, too many places, too much information, too many people, too much of things for there to be too much of, there is too much to know and i don't know where to begin but i want to try.

Facing the darkness, admitting the pain, allowing the pain to be pain, is never easy. this is why courage - big-heartedness - is the most essential virtue on the spiritual journey. but if we fail to let pain be pain - and our entire patriarchal culture refuses to let this happen - then pain will haunt us in nightmarish ways. we will become pain's victims instead of the healers we might become.

The only way to be a champion is by going through these forced reps and the torture and pain. that's way i call it the torture routine. because it's like forced torture. torturing my body. what helps me is to think of this pain as pleasure. pain makes me grow. growing is what i want. therefore, for me pain is pleasure. and so when i am experiencing pain i'm in heaven. it's great. people suggest this is masochistic. but they're wrong. i like pain for a particular reason. i don't like needle's stuck in my arm. but i do like the pain that is necessary to be a champion.

These were people so hungry for love that they were accepting substitutes. there were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. but it never works. you can't substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship. money is no substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. i can tell you as i'm sitting here dying, when you most need it, neither money nor power will give you the feeling you're looking for, no matter how much of them you have.

Live in the wisdom of accepted tenderness. tenderness awakens within the security of knowing we are thoroughly and sincerely liked by someone... scripture suggests that the essence of the divine nature is compassion and that the heart of god is defined by tenderness.
