"Suffering becomes beautiful when anyone bears great calamities with cheerfulness, not through insensibility but through greatness of mind." – Aristotle

"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars." - Kahlil Gibran


I think it's definitely good for you that you learned to enjoy the experience of suffering. So now suffering is not suffering anymore since you enjoy it. Wait, that sounds like a a paradox ...
