    Just the title reminds me of The Wounded Healer. How can we truly lead and heal others when we haven’t experienced suffering? I enjoyed the post, and as crazy as it sounds, it makes me feel blessed to be able to experience suffering without pushing it away, because good and bad reside within and are part of life

      Without suffering, how would we learn compassion?
