Suffering - the useful kind and the needless kind

No human being on earth is free from suffering. You need to know, however, that there is suffering that is useful, beneficial, and other suffering that is needless and even harmful. Needless suffering is the kind we bring upon ourselves by transgressing the laws of honesty, justice, kindness, wisdom and love, and it does not deserve compassion. Useful suffering is experienced by those who love others and sincerely wish to help them: each day they have to wring something from their heart, to strip away their selfishness, their personal point of view. For in order to help others, it is not enough to come forward with good intentions and good feelings; a whole work of inner adjustment is needed. This requires making sacrifices; it is difficult and painful but so very beneficial!
