Pain Is Good....

Pain is indispensable part of human life . It is interwoven in life like anything , but most of us abominate it . But with risk of being termed as masochist I say that pain is as quintessential to life as is happiness .
When was the last time , you remembered God ? Obviously , when you were distressed and dolorous . As grave is our grief , so strong is our invocation and prayer .We even bribe or at least try to bribe God to get respite from pain . We are that much selfish , aren't we ? Once pain is assuaged , our devotion stars fading . Thus pain takes us closer to Him .
When grief strikes , we tend to think outlandish . Let me tell you a real life incident . I met one of my cousin in the last summer vacation . He is a simple carefree guy . When I met him this year , I was pleasantly surprised to know that he has cleared CAT , and was ready to join IIM Lucknow .I was even more awestruck to know the reason behind his decision to appear in CAT . he told me that he fell for a girl from Kolkata . Despite his numerous persuasion , the girl didn't yield . Naturally , he was grievous . In state of grief , instead of resorting to alcohol or other intoxication , he decided to prepare for CAT , so that he could stay at Kolkata , by joining the IIM for persuading the girl some more .
While preparing , his feeling for her ebbed . Though, he couldn't join IIM Kolkata ,he got a seat at the IIM Lucknow . Thus pain has given him a much coveted place at an IIM . So , Pain can give us lot . What needed , is to culvert the anger aroused by pain in right direction . There is an old adage " No pain , No gain " . I just want to add that the more accute is the pain , the more bigger is the gain .
