What is the meaning of Pain?
If you are reading Widows Quest, you know the meaning of heartfelt pain. Pain hurts but the more I think about the real meaning of pain - I think that it is there for a reason. 
- It is there because we felt the true meaning of love. Would I have given up the chance to feel love…No. Pain is a sign that I have loved. I am lucky.
- Pain can help us understand more about the world and more about ourselves. Without pain would we learn to be compassionate?
- Pain is not a punishment, I like to think of it as a reminder of what has been so great in my life.
- Pain means that we are alive, that we are feeling, that we are human. If I didn’t feel pain…I would not be capable of all the happy emotions.
We may not like the feeling of our heart aching, of our pain from grief but I know that I would rather that than being void of all emotions.

Anna, I found your blog through Christian Carnival 210. Thank you for sharing. One thing we all share in life is pain, and we need each other for encouragement. I wrote about some of my recent lessons in pain and suffering a couple of months ago, in case you’re interested. Keep up the good work.
