Pain is part of being human. Loss, change, and disappointment will visit every life. No one escapes them. Pain arrives as a natural response to life unfolding.
Suffering begins when the mind resists reality — replaying the story, clinging to what was, or fighting what is. Pain is a moment. Suffering is a habit we unknowingly practice.
Buddhism reminds us that emotions rise and fall like waves. When we observe them with awareness, without attachment or judgment, they pass on their own.
Feeling pain does not mean you are weak.
It means you are alive.
What keeps us trapped is not the feeling itself, but the holding on. When you notice, breathe, allow, and let go, space opens. In that space, peace becomes possible.
🌱 Freedom is not the absence of pain.
It is the ability to experience it without becoming its prisoner.
