Good pain!

As I was heading back home after visiting Mama Aurora at the hospital, I couldn't help thinking what the relation between life and pain is.

Sometimes, feeling pain turns out been a positive experience. Sometimes, pain is all we need to feel alive. It reminds us of our mortal condition, and therefore, makes us enjoy more the good times, whenever we have them.

It's kinda a waking-up call, if you want. How else would you know how feeling good it's like, if you didn't know pain!

I wouldn't say pain is good, but rather say there's good in pain.

Other times, and hopefully the least, it's pain what makes us wish we were dead. Just to stop feeling that excruciating sensation of total impotence before either, physical or emotional anguish. I have experienced both, and wished for the end of it as well... in the most dramatic way.

But in the end, I've come to terms with me, myself, and I that it wasn't my time to part, and if anything could be taken from the experience, an overwhelming feeling of “joie the vivre” took it's place inside me.

If I always lived my life under the motto of “carpe diem”... Well, now it's “carpe diem³”!

So, beware! Cause here comes a force of life like you haven't seen before!
