The Truth of Life

There are the Inevitable times in every life when we all must step on a thorn.It is never a pleasurable feeling,it is not meant to be.In that moment of pain,more often than not,we are focussed not just on the pain itself but on the anguish of being singled out,asking the inevitable 'Why Me?' question.In the larger scheme of things,that question is as irrelevant as the pain itself.All of us realize this sooner or later.What many of us do not comprehend,is the futility of carrying the baggage of that pain into our future.As i step on the thorn,if I begin to blame the thorn,the pain has a tendency to linger,sometimes the pain expands as time passes,its memory holding centre stage,colouring how we view and feel about our lives.In life,we cannot avoid pain.What we can do is learn from the pain and move on.
