Pain is a messenger

Are you in pain? Do you want to get rid of it? But wait.....hold on....read...decide...... do you need a doctor? or can you bear it?

Pain is a messenger....

She has something to say.....

Should one kill pain?

...without hearing what it has to say?

I'm glad my tooth-aches 

And laugh when my head-aches

Happy for my bones that ache,

Happier for my heart that breaks.......

Ah!....Pain......there she goes again.....

Author's Note

So put away that Aspirin,
let the relief ointment be,
watch cartoons tom and jerry,
laugh and be merry.

definitely lessons to be learned..it's a good reminder, but if I only received joy thru pain I think that might be a form of pain IDK if I could endure

Your so right..pain lets us know that we're not listening to ourselves and our body, mind and spirit are calling out for attention.. Tom and Jerry are great but Scooby Doo and the Mystery Van is my favorite;) xxx Thank you for the insightful write..xx

How we 'reason'=over our... diss-comforts.

Two "Right" sides end as two 'lefts'... sharing sometimes takes giving in - to be there.

Take care,
Chris
