Instead of 'adding injury to insult' why not compassion and humor

Some neat remarks about insults: Krishna's dealing with it...

 

Some paragraphs about suffering that I cannot concur with.

I find it falacious to see merit in suffering, only the one who

profits by and from suffering makes the one undergoing it think it

might be meritous...

Hi Wim,

 

An insult is only an insult if you realize it as such.

 

And you can only realize it as an insult because of your

vulnerability.

 

Let me cite J. Krishnamurti:

 

" Only the image gets hurt " .

 

It is your self-image which gets hurt - no self-image, no

vulnerability. It is an irony if a member of a forum whose aim it is

to lessen the influence of ego to complain about meeting insults.
