Pain can teach us
Aristotle said, "The aim of the wise is not to secure pleasure, but to avoid pain." When I am confronted with situations or people that cause me pain, I try over and over to see if I can stop the it. When the same response continues to happen then I have a decision to make. Do I continue on this path that is leading me to pain or do I choose differently? As much as I want the one direction to produce a different outcome, it won't. Repeated attempts create the same results. I am not sure why that is a hard lesson to learn because pain can teach us.
