I’ll tell you how I survive, but you won’t like it. Every time I say anything about it, people shudder. But you couldn’t get away from it, the thing I am talking about. The word is “pain.” Pain is the avenue to getting a soul, getting quality from yourself….when the pain comes, I am patient. I shut up, active silence. I bear it, wait, even overnight, but I mean I bear it, I don’t take a tranquilizer, a sleeping pill, some schnapps, or watch television. I stand before it, I call the pain out. After you go through this, you discover you have choices. You become whole. - Herschel
