(Sash Thoughts) Never take a day without Pain for granted.

Without going much into the details and nature of that pain, let me summarise the concept of this post quickly (without taking too much Medication Focus Time) by simply saying: over the last few days I have been in agonising, physical pain. The kind of pain that no position nor relief method can truly mitigate. The sort of pain that makes one wish they would just cease to be for the pain to stop. Fortunately, thanks to modern medicine and some lovely doctors and staff at the hospital (NHS is overworked but the staff are excellent), I am no longer in said pain.

I have thus come to the conclusion that everything is relative. On a day without Pain; doing well in a video game or having some chocolate might feel like a gift. On a day with Pain; just the thought of living a day free of pain is an even greater gift.

Lesson: Never take a day without pain and good health, for granted.
