Pain

Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
Pain, without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

While driving home from the Mavericks game on Wednesday, I was rocking out to some music and singing as usual when this song came on. This song by Three Days Grace got me thinking about how in life we sometimes feel so numb and just cannot wait to feel something, anything even yes, pain. When we are in pain, is when we are growing the most. It is when we can overcome our trials and troubles and prove to ourselves and those around us that we have the strength to get through it. Times of heartache for me have been nothing but empowering. I learned so much about myself, my friends, and became closer to people during this time of pain. Sometimes, as the song states "I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all". I would rather be down in the depths fighting my way back to sanity, than laying in a sea of emtyness and meaninglessness. When we are stagnant, we learn nothing, we slump and leisurly go about our business and learn nothing and therefore are nothing. We are simply wasting time. So, if you are ever simply stagnating through life, stop and think about what you are doing. Why are you in this state? How caan you get out? You could be growing stronger, and becomining a better you.
