The Pain

‘Not just a feeling, Its more than healing.’
What if, the ‘pain’ is deleted from our Emotional System?
Yes, it’s possible now…

I am hiring psychologists and we are developing such a therapy that we can remove ‘ pain’ just like we remove tonsils by operating. So amazing and exciting that would be, isn’t it? No pain when hurt, no pain with fracture bone, no pain with a burn, no pain with cuts and wound, and no pain… It’s a recurring list. But you know what, all the painkiller medicines, gels, and ointments companies will sue me for disrupting their business. Am I sounding sarcastic? But it’s true, right? Now you must have realized it is nothing more than a bad joke I know. No compulsion to laugh, ohh! no need to smile either.
Let me tell you that I am not a psychologist. But we can make this research in our personal lab, don’t say you don’t have one. I am talking about our ‘ minds’ right?. What are we waiting for? Let’s begin…

Imagine a person deletes the feeling of‘ pain’. And one fine day he gets his feet pricked and he did not realize it for days as there is no sense of pain. And that infects his whole leg. What? If we want to get rid of the feeling of pain, What do you expect should happen then?
Now take a pause from this story and imagine someone hurts a person emotionally. And he has no way to express his pain. No expression for pain means not feeling sad. No feeling sad means Not even crying. The hurt keeps spreading like an infection. And reaching a saturation level in his mind. The level of patience tolerance exhausts and boom! boom! A blast of inner volcano comes out. Just guess which emotion overtook and became dominant in the movie “inside out?” Yes of course anger will be the boss then. And what will happen, if everyone reaches this saturation level at the same time. We don’t even want to imagine it. The scene would become such that we will start harming each other badly. No not just humans we will not spare the environment, the planet not even the solar system.
The only moral I have is, don’t hate any phase of our life because of these emotions. The pain, anger, disgust, are doing similar work like Joy, Pleasure, and satisfaction. All 9these feelings are part of our emotional cycle. They save us from disasters So let’s adore every feeling. Look at them as a third person. But remember don’t let them overpower us. Almighty has made us that strong to take up control of our own senses. As we can control our senses with help of our thoughts. Our thoughts transform our feelings. So let’s be grateful for that. The way we say.

Thank you, God, for the Food we eat
Thank you, God, for the World so sweet
Thank you, God, for the bird that sings
Thank you, God, for everything

Are we appreciating everything in a real sense? for even the undesired then? Why not be grateful to him for even feeling’s like ‘ THE PAIN’.
