Avoiding pain is a natural stimulus (it's why pain exists in the first place). Ignoring it is wrong, in general. I believe Stoicism teaches not to ignore pain, but to change our emotional response. To be more thoughtful and rational about causes of pain. And yes, ignoring a pain is the best strategy if there are absolutely no ways to avoid it (e.g. you can't change a past that causes unhappiness). |
