Again your words are full of wisdom. Love it! Yes if we don't accept pain or discomfort in life we end up in resistance and that takes more energy than acceptance! Also people can get into idle complaint mode, which I learned in my Positive Psychology program, is an infantile psychology that involves waiting for someone else to fix the problem. We instead should consider our challenges and things we don't like with creative discontent, an action toward a solution. Staying calm is the best way to think clearly and find a solution.

I live with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, and every moment of my life, I feel like I am wearing an ascot made of hornet stings. I find Stoic Wisdom to be as ameliorative as my strong medication. This post reverberated through me like a cherry bomb in a cymbal factory. Thank you!
