My pain is greater than yours!
What an easy trap that can be.
We don't need to prove our pain and suffering to anyone.
We know we have been in pain.
Most of us have been legitimately victimized.
Many of us have had difficult, painful lessons to learn.
The goal is not to show others how much we hurt or have hurt.
The goal is to stop our pain, and to share that solution with others.
There is no particular award or reward for suffering, as many of us tricked ourselves into believing.
The reward is learning to stop the pain and move into joy, peace, and fulfillment.

I could've really used that knowledge about twenty years before I got it...
ditto what gordie said, that would have saved so much time, pain and hurt, but then I probably wouldn't be the same person that I am now if I had not gone through everything that I did.
Now this is wisdom!
