You put it into words better than I ever could. That is exactly how I feel too.

There is also my belief that there is always at least one good thing that can result in response to something bad. I don't believe that any things happen for concrete reasons; it's that you can make something out of every bad occurance that can then be used to positively affect your future. It's not that good things come from bad, but that you always have the power to use any and all negative events to adjust the way you live in context of the new wisdom you've gained. Every piece of information I have gleaned from any unpleasant circumstance is priceless. If you didn't learn the lesson then, you would mostly likely have to learn it eventually in some different way and place in your life anyway.

And you need pain. You need pain to remind you that you are alive, and what you are living for.
