Thought for The Day....
“To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But then, one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.”
Woody Allen
A lot of truth there, isn't there? LOL. But when you think about it, he's dead on. To love IS to suffer, to love IS to be happy, so are we all emotionally programmed to be masochists?
Who among us has not found that in order to really "feel" love, we also must know pain. It's a vicious cycle, isn't it? In order to fully experience love, one must be willing to risk pain. Most of us do find it worthwhile to take that risk. So I guess Mr. Allen is correct in that we do love to suffer! LOL!
Hope that your Friday is bringing you a bright start to a Happy Weekend!
I will be available all weekend to assist you with your issues, intermittently from 11 a.m. through 1 a.m. EST, however, if you don't wish to arrange a call during my breaks, you can press "The Panic Button" in lieu of waiting for my return.
