Overview

Few people truly enjoy being in pain. Even fewer learn to appreciate it. Pain is generally unwanted and, when it becomes chronic, it is often regarded as an unwelcome guest who refuses to take the hint and leave.

Instead of fighting the pain, I started to learn from it. In truth, this transition from fighting to surrender didn't happen overnight. Even before I got fibromyalgia, I had already considered the possibility that having an illness could be an opportunity for personal growth. But when it came to the reality of living with pain and fatigue on a daily basis, I couldn't stop my mind from wanting to be free of it.
