Hi
This is a very interesting question. When I was young (after I had the car accident that left me in a wheelchair) I used to have these thoughts about people complaining about certain stuff: "Oh, you whiny do not know what real pain is" and so on. I had had a lot of surgeries and bad situations and somehow I developed this kind of pride, I do not know how to say it in English. I think I believed I was the master of suffering. But, that kind of thought just set me apart from people. It was not practical. I tried to discipline myself not to think like that. But sometimes, those ideas come back to my mind again.
