  1. I think of pain also in terms of negative feelings that makes us feel bad, feelings that make others feel pain... and yes, to those we obey as if we didn't have a choice...

  6. It is a powerful motivator, I cringe and dread it, I also like to think of it as a teacher too, if it hurts you it might be telling you something, obey it and run but also use it... Might be all those years doing tai chi, the drill of "learn to roll and use it".
