  You (distorted Tri's words) said just above "...You make earth and our time here sound like a trial, a crucible, an exam, a vale of tears, a basic training exercise, and--deductively--a quest for "discomfort" and "uneasiness."
  
  So when you went to Mass today and pondered and prayed about St Paul's words to Timothy today:
  
           "Bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God."
  
  did you not realize that St Paul is talking about the Cross, the daily happy struggle?
  
  No one who understood scripture well, and had developed a proper understanding of the Cross (that Jesus Himself spoke so frequently about) could have written these words:  "...You make earth and our time here sound like a trial, a crucible, an exam, a vale of tears, a basic training exercise, and--deductively--a quest for "discomfort" and "uneasiness."
