I think neither sound good but i will agree with the above. Physical pain will fade. Emotional takes alot longer to heal (if it ever does).

Personally, I would have to deal with the circumstances you describe as emotional pain. Many of the situations you describe as emotionally painful can be reasoned in to being not painful at all.

Finding out a loved one is terminally ill is a drag for sure. It is however a way of life, one which you must learn to cope with in order to be well adjusted.

Having a relative inform you of homosexuality is a blessing. They have realized who they themselves are, and are comfortable enough to talk to you about it. This is positive.

Physical pain causes scars and decreases life expectancy. Emotional pain allows you to learn about yourself, and the world. A world you would experience far less of if you had suffered multiple gunshot wounds (even if you survived them).
