The funny thing about-

The funny thing about pain is that it is not concise to the idea of a vital body organ failing, or a limb aching. It is much more than that. It is a personal experience that we often neglect; more often feared. We rarely investigate its true guise. Pain is reciprocated with our body's reaction to a obnoxious stimuli. It is often feared. And for that, I pity the mind of the closed. Pain is needed because it signals the individual that something is going to damage them, whether in complete bulk or with bits and pieces. Pain helps you become aware that something is not going to be your best experience. It simply protects.

The funny thing about people and their association with pain is that no matter how we scrutinize pain in its most extreme form, we have to admit that we can never let it go. The idea of having yourself endure something is as mouth watering as those French Baguettes over the counters of a fancy cafe somewhere in the streets of Paris. We crave for pain. That's the horrible truth. But more importantly, that makes us human. Because ultimately, pain is only worth it for the people who knew better. It is valued most with those who are open enough to accept and understand.

The funny thing about experiencing pain is that we are too scared to see pain in its amiable side. To us, it is never an adorable perception. It is not fun nor nice. It is a monster lurking, it is a trap; an unexpected trap. But it is more than that. Pain ranges from the superficial up to the innermost of our skins. It can range from a caress to a hard hitting blow. And true enough, there's a dignity to that. There is a bragging expense to that. There's a degree of dignity after enduring that destructible pain we ought. Whether it is from a single carious cavity of one's molar to the more emotional ruins of a broken heart's mural, there is something to be proud of about pain.

The funny thing about pain is that you'll never appreciate comfort without it. You can never feel infinitesimal paradise without having to battle your demonic dragons first.

The funny thing about us is that even though we know all these cliches about pain changing people, we still fail to realize that pain alongside with change, is inevitable. And all we can do about it is to accept and learn from all of it. It is not something to be feared, it is something to be indulged.

It makes us human an there is nothing really funny about it. But there is something to smile for after all of it.
