Do you believe there is value in suffering?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 11, 2009:

Yes i unfortunately do believe that there is a value in suffering. That may sound harsh, but it is true. It is kind of like the saying what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Once you come through a bad time you are stronger for it. If another catasrophy comes around you will be more emotionally and mentally ready to face it head on. I can personally vouch for this because I have deal with many hardships in my life so far and I am only 17.

The thing I have the hardest time giving is my love and my trust. I have been betrayed many times so if is very hard for me to trust people so i am very reluctant to give people my trust. In general I believe that it is hard for many people to give their love to someone because of fear.

What was the biggest adventure of your past year?

My biggest adventure for 2008 was when I jumped off a small ten foot waterfall at Alapocus park in Delaware. To many that may not seem like a big deal but to me it was. I am terrified of heights and when i would get to the top and look down my heart would stop but i realized that it was a thrill and a great high. Im still unfortunately afraid of heights but im  slowly getting over it.

Within myself I have the hardest time accepting weakness or fear. I have such a hard time with these things because in my family I am the one that has to stay composed and strong to comfort everyone else.
