He says why does pain show up at the times they do, maybe because for some reason the pleasure in our lives are not balanced with the stresses. I mean we've had these feelings deep within for a long time and maybe at some point we started having less and less fun and good times and thats when the pain starts taking over.
Yup, this is why it is important to have JOY in our lives. Even little things. Someone brought me fresh figs from their garden--how sweet of them and how delicious for me! Gratitude for everything that makes us happy--no matter how insignificant it may seem. It's great when you can take a minute to let the feeling sink in.
Yes and its usually the small things in life that bring us the most joy like you said , but I guess its when we dwell too much on all the negative things, and forgot what about our lives that are good.
With the US economy the way it is with all the stuff going all, I'm sure the medical business is doing well, they say in bad economic times to buy stocks in healthcare and beer companies.
