Pain and fear, although quite unpleasant (especially in great intensity), seem like they exist for a purpose. I'm not one of those people that will tell you that everything happens for a reason (I don't think the fact that I just belched has any bearing on anyone anywhere), but I do know that those two things (fear and pain) are there for a reason. What I'm talking about is that if you feel pain or fear, your body or your mind or your spirit is trying to tell you something.
Pain and fear are both symptoms, although they do feel like diseases in themselves sometimes. There are times we think we are meant to live in pain or in fear, but we're not. I'm one of those people who believes God loves us and wants us to have joy. Jesus went around loving people and healing them and he did quite a bit to let people know he wanted them to have a better life. I mean he did die.
I guess what I'm saying is that we should trust our instincts sometimes. If things don't seem like they're going that well, maybe they aren't. If you're afraid or hurting, maybe you should try something different.
