    • This is an interesting piece starting off one way and flipping it around. That is how life is, right?

    • The first one is better in my opinion. Our minds are a battlefield.

    • Every one of us has the power to heal & to harm within us. It’s which course we choose to follow that separates the healers from the rest. Beautiful, Brenda 🧡

      • hello lovely Willow this is true it is always my intent to make things nicer it doesn’t always go that way no matter what sometimes thank you for the love on this 💕

    • Even with faith we will still struggle. I guess pain is a part of life when it comes. For many, faith has its benefits and joys. For others it’s a fantasy made up by humans. I suppose our minds and how we think plays a big part.

      • my faith perhaps is not as strong as others though I do know God I struggle with suffering thank you for your thoughts 💕

    • Great write Brenda.
      I now realise that pain is quite different from suffering.Most, if not all, our suffering arises in the mind…..
      that’s also where peace hangs out.

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.
