Pain Prescriptions

Pain Prescriptions

“When pain is to be borne, a little courage helps more than much knowledge, a little human sympathy more than much courage, and the least tincture of the love of God more than all.”

~ C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain

    • Not sure why they weren’t there. I think I remember seeing Defining Moments. Not sure about Pain Prescriptions. I am careful to not have too many tags with the initial post. I add more later. WordPress can’t publish it if it has too many tags and categories. Found that our the hard way. Thanks for letting me know.
