| Thinker : Musings : Pain is Like Water | |||||
|
Water Flows Down Got in an accident yesterday. Yep. It hurt. Fell off my bike. At first, I hurt all over. I tingled and then started to shake in my legs. I wasn't sure what was hurt how bad. Then everything felt good except for my shoulder which began to hurt more and more. I'm guessing that there's no such thing as "injury"; there is just "fear" and agreement with a concept of "should be injured". I "knew" I had to be hurt somewhere, so I took a little while to figure out where. I settled on a spot in my body that already ached and was a reasonable target for the type of accident I just had. The pain flowed "downhill" towards the spot that was already the most full of pain (accounting for the type of accident). |
