Pain and suffering is normal and natural. Everyone in their life will go through experiences that will cause pain and suffering.
The problem is unnecessary pain and suffering. Too many times I subconsciously cause myself pain. Maybe I have negative self talk or do not believe in myself which can have a negative ripple effect in my life.
The mind can play tricks on you if you are not standing guard. The mind will tell you lies, point out the negative, tell you what’s wrong, tell you that you can’t and to give up.
Walking around in life unconscious you will fall for traps which will lead to pain and suffering.
