Pleasan it is, when on the great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another's great tribulation: not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy, but because to percieve what ills you are free from yourself is pleasant.
PS. If all that Nature barks for is that pain be removed away out of the body and that the mind be kept away from care and fear, why do we need then these pains, why these sorrows? Do we really need to fear the Gods?

I do not do drugs and this is nothing to do with that.

no, do not fear the gods, but rejoice in what they reveal to you, for it will make you stronger and wiser.

Very thought provoking. I'm tired, but it really is beautiful and I think I get what you're saying! No matter how bad we think things are, there are always people out there with worse problems and as long as we are pain free we have nothing to worry about and should just put our trust in God. Is that correct?

Yes fear the only living God, but because you relaize who He is and that He loves you. There is only real comfort in Christ and real peace.....
Hope you find Him.....

Fear only the God which can not only destroy the body but after that can destroy the soul in eternal fire.

Ahhh, ok, we DO need to fear the God of the Bible if we die outside His forgiveness.

Ok, next time you go sailing, avoid taking mescaline. Too much of it can't be healthy.
