What's Up With Pain?

Hey, God, I'm thankful that I didn't wake up with an excruciating headache this morning, but I'm also aware that it is most likely just a matter of time before the next one comes.

So what's up with pain?

I suppose I understand pain that is caused by things I do to myself, or even pain caused by things that other people do to me. But what's the deal with pain that happens for no good reason? Why should a quirk in my body cause me to writhe with unbearable pain?

Am I supposed to learn something from this?

Should I be more in touch with my body? What about the stuff that's killing me that doesn't hurt?

Hmm...that's an interesting thought. But the pain still sucks. You can stop that anytime you want.

Amen.
