Yes because the particular pain is part of who we are; whether you're talking about the pain of brokenness, or the pain of healing.

Christina I think it shows a very good and generous heart, to go through so much in your own therapy and yet want to transform that suffering, & that learning, which comes at such a high cost, into help you would offer for others.

I have a feeling you would make a good counselor indeed. Please be gentle with yourself.
Thanks for this!
