One of my favorite movies is the Mission Impossible series by Tom Cruise. I love the idea that no mission is impossible; one just needs the drive, the training, the tools and the heart! I always thought of myself as a solution oriented person. I don’t like to talk a lot about mundane things but I do think a lot, and a lot more lately. If there is a mission impossible for me, it would be to free every one of unnecessary pain and suffering. I know from experience and from my education that pain is unavoidable in life. Every birth is brought about by pain. The birth of a baby, the birth of hope and new beginnings arrived due to lessons learned from pain. We might call them challenges to get a more positive spin on it. Yes, life is full of challenges and it is the changing of your mind or your perspective on how to perceive things on your day to day that the impossible becomes possible. Unnecessary suffering is the mindset that one is hopeless and change is not possible; that we are bound to our own circumstances and no help is coming.
