Recently, I've been thinking about what pain is. When you get stung, your skin tightens up and you scream OUCH! but what triggers that? When you get pinched, your skin is tightened once again and you know you feel pain. But how do we know that's pain? isn't it just your body reacting to certain movements? Is there a way to block it? Forget that its pain and pretend its not there?? What about emotional pain, there's nothing really there to hurt, how do we know its pain? I still don't know, but what I know is that there is no pain greater than what I feel right now. A pain that, sadly, will never go away.
