Why could dr. Barnard accept his father’s belief that suffering was god’s way of making us better people
Answers
Answer:
Dr. Barnard then realized the true meaning of his father’s words. He understood that it is the experience of suffering which make one noble. One cannot enjoy life unless one experiences suffering. Therefore, Instead of crying over what we have lost, we must be happy with what we have left.
Explanation:
Dr.Barnard then describes an incident that he had witnessed in a children’s hospital. The two children took over a breakfast trolley that was left unattendant in a ward. They pushed it all over the ward while the remaining two one was blind and the other had only one arm. The blind boy steered it with the one arm he had. They enjoyed the game and were a cause for other’s enjoyment also. Dr. Barnard says that this incident made him realize that he was looking at ‘SUFFERING’ from the wrong end.
