There is no pain.
Pain is the mind-killer.
Pain is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my pain.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the pain has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Jim Downey
*With apologies to Frank Herbert, for all my friends who suffer chronic pain of any sort.
