Pain - Reasons for pain in our life

Pain

 

How much longer

must I shake you up

before you pay some serious

attention to me?


I have loved you all your life,

I have carried you through  

a lot of hardship up till now,

but all I have gotten from you

was anger and bitterness.


All the good that I have sent your way

you contributed

to luck or your own success.

Never once contemplating

that I am the originator of it.


I have spoken to you

in your conscience

and tried to keep you

from so many wrong choices.


You and I know

how often you have ignored Me

and ran into your own mistakes.

At the end it was Me again

who took the blame for it.


Now I’m sending you pain

at a level you have not

experienced before.


Finally, I have your attention,

for all of a sudden

it is clear to you that I exist.


But all you have left for Me

is utter rejection and more anger.


Don’t you realize it is Me

who has been wanting

to lead you down

a different path all along?


But how can I do it

if I do not have

your cooperation?


I’ve been meaning to keep you

from many of your mistakes

and the hardship

they brought along.


I’ve been wanting to walk

with you through all the tough times

and hold your hand tightly

so that you can make it through

without wounding your soul.


I’ve got so much good

planned for you

but you keep running away from me.


Don’t you notice

that the only one you are hurting

with your stubbornness

is yourself?


I love you.

“God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world”

C.S. Lewis

 

 

Proverbs 3:11–12 (The Israel Bible)

Do not reject the discipline of Hashem, my son; Do not abhor His rebuke. 12

For whom Hashem loves, He rebukes, As a father the son whom he favors.

The second problem - PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)

The second problem I have a problem, or so I thought for a long time. Something bothered me immensely. Whether it was: suffering, illness,  injustice, bullying, abuse, loss, or anything else that threw me off track, what's certain is that the pain of it was etched into my mind. I got incredibly upset about it, simmered with anger and resentment, shrouded myself in self-pity and depression, occupied myself with all sorts of distractions, and did all sorts of things to try and get rid of the pain. Soon I realized that the thought about my problem had become lodged inside me, like a bird that has built a nest  in my tree. I'm starting to brood over the negative feelings. Day and night, they give me no peace. I'm getting so worked up about this terrible situation that I'm constantly preoccupied with all sorts of possible and even impossible scenarios. Soon, I'm experiencing increasing difficulty concentrating. Coping with everyday tasks becomes more and m...

Information about the posts in March 2026

All posts posted in March 2026 have a specific order to them. I have placed them in 3 different categories: 1. The Problems 2. The Considerations 3. The Solutions Posts, that will be posted after March 2026 do not have this order, but will be posted randomly only sorted by the time they were posted. It is my hope, that the reader realizes, that he/she is not the only one struggling with a certain problem. I have spent much effort going into the depth of each problem with the hope that the reader can identify with it. Over time I have come to realize that the way we react to problems in principle is timeless. We all get stuck with the same or similar reactions. At the beginning those reactions are rather unproductive or even destructive.  It is my goal to not only honestly write about different problems, but also give the reader, who is seeking solutions good thoughts to consider. I do wish for each reader to read the lyrics with an open mind and contemplate what is wr...

When the soul cries out - Emotional pain

When the soul cries out   When the soul cries out then the head is full with pain. When the soul cries out then it is obvious that you cannot concentrate. When the soul cries out then the everyday routines become difficult. When the soul cries out then any contacts with the outside world become more and more difficult. When the soul cries out then you become more impatient with yourself and others. When the soul cries out then you need a lot of love and comfort  in order to heal again.     (1606121555-1912,1706120737-0747)     Psalm 147:3 (The Israel Bible) He heals their broken hearts, and binds up their wounds.
