“Is suffering really necessary? Yes and no. If you had not suffered as you have, there would be no depth to you as a human being, no humility, no compassion. You would not be reading this now. Suffering cracks open the shell of ego, and then comes a point when it has served its purpose. Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary.” (Eckhart Tolle)
AND
“Our suffering is not caused by whatever is happening to us. It is caused by the thought that whatever is happening to us is not supposed to be happening to us.” (Teal Swan)
Peace, love, light, and joy,
