Pain but also beauty and wisdom

I'm currently having a lot of pain in my stomach. It's a dull ache at most points in time, but sometimes it shoots up my back. I don't know how or why a pain in the stomach gets transferred to the back, but maybe pain also has a vanity element to it. It probably needs to be felt in all profiles. Like when you wear a fitted dress in a dressing cubicle.

Anyway, I read something from the Tao Te Ching

What is a good man but a bad man's teacher?
What is a bad man but a good man's job?

A very soothing feeling in the tummy.
