Advice

The best advice I ever been given was when I was a little child. I was told that pain doesn't really hurt, just as long as you're in one piece. Now that really made me think on that. Physical pain does hurt a bit, but we sometimes overreact about it. Like for example, we might slam an object on our fingers. Sure, it hurts, but are fingers are still there. They didn't snap off our hand, you didn't lose your fingers at all. You're still in one piece, no missing limbs, no nothing. Whenever I'm in pain, I tell myself this. And then I suddenly forget about the pain because if we're still focused on the pain, we'll never realize that it doesn't really hurt as much as losing a physical part of yourself.
