But there was no need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bore witness that a man had the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer.

The one thing you can't take away from me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me. The last of one's freedoms is to choose one's attitude in any given circumstance. Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue. Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.

Man’s search for a meaning is not pathological, but rather the surest sign of being truly human. [...] How should the clinician respond to this challenge? Traditionally, he is not prepared to cope with this situation in any but medical terms. Thus he is forced to conceive of the problem as something pathological. Furthermore, he induces his patient to interpret his plight as a sickness to be cured rather than as a challenge to be met. [...] The doctor should not let himself be seduced by the still prevalent reductionism into devaluating man’s concern for meaning and values to ‘nothing but’ a defense mechanism, a reaction formation, or a rationalization. The ‘nothing-but-ness’ of human phenomena is indeed one of the foremost features in the reductionist image of man.

The Lamentation Over the Dead Christ (detail) Botticelli ca. 1490-92

* * * *

"In short: who can take away suffering without entering it?" ~ Henri J. M. Nouwen, 'The Wounded Healer' + "Is there suffering upon this new earth? On our earth we can only love with suffering and through suffering. We cannot love otherwise, and we know of no other sort of love." ~ Fyodor Dostoevsky, 'The Dream of a Ridiculous Man' + "If there is a meaning in life at all, then there must be a meaning in suffering. Suffering is an ineradicable part of life, even as fate and death. Without suffering and death, human life cannot be complete." ~ Viktor E. Frankl, 'Man's Search for Meaning' + "I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more." ~ Anne Frank + "We are one, after all, you and I, together we suffer, together exist and forever will recreate each other." ~ Pierre Teilhard de Chardin [thanks to Ian Sanders]
