We've all done things sometimes that are just so dumb and stupid and embarrassing that we just torture ourselves with that memory playing in our head over and over again. Yeah, it sucks. The pain hurts so much as though someone is physically torturing you and its so overbearing that you just wanna scream out loud.

Yeah, i think everyones been there at some point. Im at that point myself right now.

But I recently read a book where the author argues that pain is a good thing, it helps us to grow as a person. Pain teaches us what we are doing wrong and so it helps us in righting ourselves. Thus pain is not only inevitable in life, it is necessary as pain helps us become better human beings.

And that really spoke to me. The stuff that causes the most pain are the mess ups in ones life. So if you see it from the authors perspective, these mess ups should be the biggest opportunities of self growth right? Well, thats what im gonna find out. Im gonna use my mess ups to make sure i improve myself and not mess up when it really counts. Im gonna use the unwavering pain for good. Im gonna become a better person.

Please excuse my 2am ramblings.
