Be Willing to Share Pain

More often than not, the most healing thing we can do with someone who is in pain, rather than trying to get rid of that pain, is to sit there and be willing to share it. –Scott Peck

Ironically, according to ancient legend, the word Wilderness didn’t conjure up a place of punishment, but rather a place of learning, spiritual growth, understanding, healing, and accomplishment. It referred to a wellspring of Divine energy in the guise of despair, hardship and pain; your experience in the wilderness was designed to prepare or propel you toward your destiny. Or pry you loose from whatever was keeping you from it.
