Pain

The Hafetz Hayim said, “He who suffers and yet maintains his courage is more to be praised than a complaining person.  It is analogous to a man who is arrested and put in chains.  If he remains calm, the chains hurt a little.  If he struggles and seeks escape they cut into his flesh and the pain increases.”

Worry Not

Rabbi Yechiel Michal of Zlotchov taught, "I learned this wisdom from my ancestors: There are two things it is forbidden to worry about: That which it is possible to fix, And that which it is impossible to fix. What is possible to fix - fix it, and why worry? What is impossible to fix - how will worrying help?"
