It's just a bunch of short passages, but one of them struck me and I think I will highlight it.

It's about being with the pain, leaning into it, feeling it. That you won't find it bottomless.

Interesting perspective. I like the positive spin on that, as opposed to "you just have to feel like crap for a while, sorry."


Pain is weakness leaving the body.
