Knowledge of the self is the mother of all knowledge. So it is incumbent on me to know my self, to know it completely, to know its minutiae, its characteristics, its subtleties, and its very atoms.
– Khalil Gibran
And that changes from moment to moment. It is said that the above ability can aide in pain management. It might sound counter-intuitive as you hear often times – I keep my mind off – I keep busy – I ignore it and keep going – I distract myself with this or that – I pop some pills and I’m good to go … or the radical opposite of doing nothing, withdrawing because literally, can’t do anything – fear takes over – but we are talking PAIN. Get to know your enemy. Know yourself. Let’s heed it so we can mend it. There’s a way. Namaste:)
