April Pain: Reason to Complain

April Pain
On a scale of 1 to 10, where is yours?
Pain is Relative
Nobody has no pain. Not even a sea sponge or a nitrous oxide enthusiast.
Constant stress from styrofoam cling-on… a 2?
A nagging concern about proper toe alignment… a 1?
Cardiac surgery… a 10!
Childbirth… an 11!
A paper cut from a past due snail mail bill… a 5?
Personally, I worry that it’s wicker bag season. I hate wicker. It cannot compete with calfskin, cotton canvas or nylon as an accessory… a 2?
I love a Ceasar salad, but croutons annoy. They lack character. They either try too hard or not enough… a 3?
Perspective
Pain is subjective, but so is pleasure and joy.
Covid-19 pandemic, lockdown hell, illness and death… 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 +
My arm hurts – not from the shot – but from logging onto numerous websites for days, weeks, months trying to nail an appointment for the vaccine… not even a 1.
Scientists seek ways to finally take real measure of pain…
