Fear had nothing to do with it. Some of us accept pain to relieve others from their pain. It also could be as simple as karmic balance. Or maybe your parents needed the experience of dramatic and unconditional love when you were born, and for many years to follow, and you agreed.
We as Souls understand the potential for growth involved. An illness or accident of any sort may teach us about our incredible power (power to feel joyful and optimistic, or power to heal and to love a sick body), while others may need learn how to be dependent upon others (humility with grace), we may need to learn patience, we may need to learn trust, there's no end to it. Self love is a huge lesson. And illness can be a catalyst for (as well as the time for) a deep spiritual curiosity and interest.
There is no end to the good and loving reasons for illness. Blaming yourself is ridiculous. Stop "why me" and start "what do I need learn?"
Sometimes Ruth, an enlightened balance may decide on pain, to learn about it. To understand it, to strengthen their compassion for others, to help others around them learn compassion, there's no end to it.
Quote:I think my default is or was disease. I needed life saving emergency surgery on my pyloric sphincter at 2 1/2 weeks. I've had plenty of digestive complications in the thirty-two years since - Crohn's disease, bowel surgery, kidney stones, anemia...
I can somewhat grasp this as a plan, the expedient catalyst. I can see how this pain has spurred my seeking (I do not begrudge the experience). I can understand somewhat how fear leads to disease. But the origin of my original digestive disease, does this mean that I had a fear as I came in or is this a fear from a previous incarnation? Is my spirit afraid of something or is it like inertia from a past life? Am I aware of the blockages and the nature of the disease in between incarnations or am I fearful in these times? Or did I know I would be fearful on this plane?
Please forum, I know I'm not the only one born busted up here. What's the scoop?
