Many years ago, I told a brick wall that I envied it because it couldn't feel pain, disappointment, sadness, etc. Then, I could almost hear the wall speak back (I now know it was actually the Holy Spirit speaking within me). It "said" it envied me because it can neither feel love, joy, happiness, etc.! *slap* Nice smack I got there!
Joy and Pain can, and in fact made to, co-exist. Without one, we can't fully understand or appreciate the other. And while we need not necessarily give thanks FOR everything, we can give thanks IN everything! (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

from someone who have spent his entire life trying to feel more, having feelings is definitely better than no feelings.
