No Joy No Gain
They say "No pain no gain."
What if there is no real pain but only a fabricated carbon and gain was always there waiting us to realize it and admire in heart? Hot pepper gives so much pain to me but should we also ask it some other people who loves it deeply. Just to find one word that will inspire it is full of joy to read 600 pages to some people like me and it is a real torture to some other. If everything is love would there be any pain then?
To me there is gain only in happiness and joy.
If there is pain but you are unaware then there is no pain for you. (If there is joy but you are unaware then there is no joy for you either.) More interestingly if there is pain and you are fully aware of it then everything is a gain and you are left with no pain. Why? Here is the explanation;
There is a gain in pain only when there is some kind of a meaning in it. Because if there is pain but you don't see any meaning i.e., you don't read its message and you do everything as you did before then there is no gain. In order smb. to find meaning in anything s/he needs to go out of it or get free from it. If you are going to carry the chair you sit on you'd better stand up first. So when you are in the pain you cannot find any gain. You need to see pain apart from yourself and say aha! how couldn't i see this before. And if you're able to say it you are totally in joy and happiness in addition to being apart from the pain which is not yours. (which has never been yours either)
To summarize
One must not kill the pain rather kill his sleep.

The Coward Champ
You’ve probably had brave moments,
like you’ve had plenty of coward ones.
You’ve had achievements,
maybe less
maybe more than your failures.
You’ve highly likely experienced pain and happiness too,
but none of these is enough to make you a “this” or “ that “ now.
You are neither a coward nor a hero.
Maybe you are not as brave as you would like to be,
but you could choose to be so - right now.
You’re not as coward as you fear you may be.
But then again, if you allow room for fear you might
find yourself defeated any moment.
Ask yourself what kind of life you desire,
and how much pain you are willing to take in order to embrace it.
Or you can escape from pain and hopelessly fight with yourself.
Either this or that, life has its neverending, yet bearable pains.
And you will see this..
You’re neither guilty nor innocent.
You can acquit yourself from all your crimes.
You can even commit murder any minute in the shadow of your innocent past.
When you choose to use or hide the power within you,
or even when you’re not aware of your choices,
You will encounter pain and think the happy moments have come to an end.
And you will realise that every pain endured
will make you weak and strong at the same time.
You can rewrite your past should you so desire,
As for your future, you are writing it now anyway.
Just make sure you don’t say “I’ve succeeded”,
as you might not be able to achieve what you have in mind.
Don’t say “I’ve failed” either, cos in fact you may be winning.
Realise that yesterday’s meaning is hidden in today,
And today’s meaning is hidden in you.
Like it or not,you are learning it every day.
The strong is weak; and likewise the weak is strong.
And believe me;
“Everything is possible.”
