I know God had some purpose in mind whin he allows people to suffer. In some ways he is preparing us all for some purpose that will some day be revealed to us.

 I tihink we can prepare our selves for the revelations of what that purpose is. By doing exactly what has be proposed, to distance our selves from our stresses and distractions as much possible and seek olitude and peace. The best part is you don't have to be trying to
think abut what your purpose is. When the time comes it will be revealed to you. All you really have to do is to try to clear you mind clear of any thoughts at all. Now the big problem is of course  all thus distracting voices.

Well I do think that each of us are on our own individual journeys in who to pacify our voice so they will leave us alone. It seams like most people I've known have had fewer spiritual voices and visions revlations, as they get older. Now that I think of it thus two thoughts, a purpose for the voices and that they will subside with age, is what keep me going thru those hard time. I hope that is something that's is of some comfort or solace. I do believe that all of our experiences are valuable and have some divine purpose in life.
