"Tell me not your politics or religion. Tell me only your suffering". - Louis Pasteur

"Life is suffering".- First of four noble truths of Buddhism

I never found the question, "What is the purpose of suffering", to be very helpful..

Rather, I'd like to pose another question (or two) with you instead...

"What is suffering calling you to do?"

I heard this question asked by Dr. James Hollis and it stopped me dead on my tracks (well,, not really because I was driving).

And then another question came up from that...

What is suffering calling me to Become?"

I've been marinating on these two questions and felt a nudge to make it into a podcast episode.

So, my friends, get ready with pen and paper and be prepared to do some curious inquiry.

Dr. Suess mentions in that book, “Oh the Places You’ll Go”.

You can get so confused

that you'll start in to race

down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace

and grind on for miles cross weirdish wild space,

headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.

The Waiting Place...

...for people just waiting.

Waiting for a train to go

or a bus to come, or a plane to go

or the mail to come, or the rain to go

or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow

or the waiting around for a Yes or No

or waiting for their hair to grow.

Everyone is just waiting.

Waiting for the fish to bite

or waiting for the wind to fly a kite

or waiting around for Friday night

or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake

or a pot to boil, or a Better Break

or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants

or a wig with curls, or Another Chance.

Everyone is just waiting.

What are we waiting for?....I call those the “unmet blessings”, the “unanswered prayers”. And to be in that waiting place can be so painful. I can feel that even within myself. It’s like a sinking feeling that makes me want to cave into myself. But whatever you’re feeling as you are thinking about this, I want to invite you to carve out “sacred space” and allow it to be there for just a moment….at least through this episode.
