Pain: The Challenge and the Gift

by Marti Lynn Matthews

Pain can be viewed not as punishment, but as opportunity for learning and enrichment. The author has experienced a life of disabling pain for severe curvature of the spine. Nonetheless, she has lived an unusually full and rich life, and she shows how other people can do the same thing, by accepting pain as a growth opportunity.
