You may not be grateful for the unkind, loud, or intolerant, but you can be grateful for the opportunities they have given you. Not just that you learn how not to behave, but that you are in a position to help them now.

Experiencing serious illness and a 3-month period of incessant nervepain was a tremendous, albeit tough, teacher allowing me a total-immersion crashcourse on the inevitability of impermanence, the strength in vulnerability, tolerance, resilience, patience, healing humour, the transformative power of compassionate touch, a newfound respect for the intricacy of the human nervous system, setting emotional boundaries, personal responsibility, connection with Spirit, the importance of meaning to the human experience, the astounding power of the mind-body connection and the marvel that is Life.
