Pain undoubtedly is the most alarming feeling which we all mostly describe as a bad or worse experience that we have come across many times in our life. All of us are trying to escape pain, run away from it because it disturbs our life but pain is inevitable it comes to you even when you think everything is perfect. But considering pain it is that feeling which pushes us forward and motivates and makes us realize the true importance of life.


 

It is basically hard to see the brighter part of it because pain is harsh, it demands to be felt, it pierces right through the heart causing a lot of damage mentally and emotionally, more like a numb feeling. Seeing pain from a different perspective can change the way of our life. The pain we are going through today is paving the path and making us more potent and powerful in the future.There's even a saying which states “God never wastes our pain”.The pain which we go through will give us greater experience and capacity for compassion,generosity and love because as said earlier a newer perspective brings out a newer person.Pain makes us more valiant and passionate towards everything, teaches us to value every simpler and smaller thing because even being small or simpler it will play a greater aspect in the coming future.Feeling pain is a test of personality. It's not just about developing our characters. It may be less developed  or already developed, and all the pain we come through is a test of the personality which we already have. Growing up we have experienced it in different forms, we all have our own stories to tell and this defines the character we are evolving into and pain plays a great part in developing it.The painful experiences of the past and the lessons  learned from them always remind us of how ugly they can be. Pain itself has both positive and negative aspects depending on how we  see it and cope with it. We humans have a habit of always wanting to feel special, like our  own life somehow has greater meaning than that of others, but when we  get to experience pain we perceive that everyone in this world faces the same fears and suffers the same pains.


 

Pain is inevitable and it affects everyone. It is on us whether we take it as everyone else's “negative feeling” or face it and move on and gain experience from it. No matter how much we run from it, it will come to us. Pain is what keeps us alive and gives meaning to our life.
