Pain

in #hive-15385012 days ago

Most times, I wish I had created my account all based on being anonymous because there are days where I really feel like saying some personal stuff out here, kinda like a journal, so that when I do eventually heal from whatever that thing may be, I could always come back here maybe ten years later to read it all over again.

Unfortunately I can't do that because some people do know me personally and that will just be me putting out way too much personal information out there.

Anyways, today's blog will be focused on pain and this is because I've come to the realization that I've been living a good life, one that hasn't really experienced pain. And I'm not just talking about physical pain, I'm talking about all and any kinds of pain.

And the reason why I know that or why I'm just coming to that realization is because little things tend to get to me in ways I never thought they would. These are things that I usually would tell someone else to get over it whenever they were experiencing the same thing, thinking that I would be able to handle it like a boss if I was in that same situation.

I guess this is why the saying "only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches" is true because you never know what it is or how it feels until you find yourself in a similar situation and experience it yourself.

For a while now I've been in pain, not the physical one, nope...but I've been in pain for something that can be considered minor, but everytime I think about it, it hurts. Luckily for me, I don't get to think about it a lot because I always try to distract myself with stuff, to keep myself busy.

But whenever I just slip up and allow myself to think about that stuff (like I'm currently doing), I find myself feeling a pain that I shouldn't be feeling, especially for something like this.

Well, I've decided to console myself with the fact that it probably hurts like this because it's something recent, and that hopefully a week from now or a month from now, it will no longer hurt. In the main time, I really have to get used to pain, so used to it that little things like this wouldn't hurt me anymore.

It might sound sad, but it's actually the smartest thing to do to prevent myself from hurting for silly things like this in the future.
