p.a.i.n

Pain comes in all forms. The small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain. The normal pains we live with everyday.


Then there's the kind of pain you can't ignore. A level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else... Makes the rest of your world fade away, until all we can think about is how much we hurt.


How we manage our pain is up to us.


Pain. We anesthetize , ride it out, embrace it, ignore it, and for some of us the best way to manage pain is to just push through it.


Pain.


You just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own. Hope the wound that caused it heals.


There are no solutions, no easy answers. You just breath deep and wait for it to subside.


Most of the time pain can be managed, but sometimes the pain gets you when you least expect it, hits way below the belt and doesn't let up.


Pain. You just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it... And life always makes more.

i once posted this as a note on my FB account. just wanna share it here. 

by the way, i got this from Grey's Anatomy. :)

very very light...

sometimes we keep holding on even if the situation tells us to let go. we ignore the pain to the point that we become numb. we keep fighting even if the person we love has already given up on us. we still hope, against all odds, against all logic, that everything will be ok. that everything will return to normal. that all the bullshit and the drama will end.

but at the end of the day, there will come a point that we'll get tired. we'll realize that the pain we feel is too much, that we've suffered too long and that we've hoped too high. we'll realize that the battle is already finish and we have to face the fact that we have lost the fight and the victory will never be ours. yes, there'll be wounds, deep, penetrating wounds, but no matter how deep those wounds are, the good thing is, they'll heal. we'll recover. we'll be ok again. the wounds will heal but the scars will always be there to remind us about the battle we have faced and how stupid we were back then. people sometimes get stupid when it comes to love. that's a fact. but there's no need to blame ourselves.

we have fought valiantly to save the dying relationship.we have done our part. and after all this shit, we need to move on. it'll take time to recuperate, it's a gradual process, like the cliche "one-baby-step-at-a-time" crap. but it's the only way to save ourselves. it's time to pick up the broken pieces of our shattered heart and make it whole again. one day, though bruised and wounded, we will be whole again and the experience we had will help us to face the world with a kick-ass attitude.
