This quotation shows pain is a very good thing which pain makes people grow up. Just like people learn from their mistakes, pain is also a way to teach people some lessons. No pain no gain, because of the pain we learn and we know our life is difficult. We know our path of life is full of ups and downs. During this path we become more mature.…

The concepts of this theory are the balance between analgesia and side effects, pain, and side effects themselves. Opioid analgesics often have very unpleasant side effects, so the end result is often patients taking less medication than they actually need, which results in pain not being effectively relieved. The combination of potent analgesics, pharmacological and non-pharmacological adjuvants can allow for the pain relief needed and also help minimize or eliminate unwanted side effects. Nurses can work with the patient to educate them on the side effects of potent medication and help them set realistic goals. This will entail working with both the patient and physician to achieve the results desired.…
Even those who wish to work face challenges. Society has reared even friends and family to belittle those who attempt to follow their inspiration. Those with jobs considered undignified or improper are seen as inferior in hierarchical fashion. Following the arts is considered a waste of time, whereas following science or math is considered spectacular. Careers such as lawyers, doctors, and engineers, are highly valued for the money they produce and the education they require. This is inherently harmful, not only to those who wish to follow other professions, but also due to it providing wealth inequality. Rather than health and happiness, money becomes the priority. Moreover, someone who is unable to acquire a higher education might not be seen as fit for most jobs. It is a vicious cycle, where people need degrees to land jobs deemed decent, need money to attain said education, and need education to obtain the…
The first noble truth is life is suffering. To live means to suffer and since it is human nature, no one is perfect in any shape or form. While we develop, we inevitably have to endure physical and psychological suffering sooner or later. Each of us, no matter how rich or poor, is going to get sick, grow old, and die. Nothing is permanent, nothing can permanently satisfy us. “ Any aspect of life, no matter how seemingly pleasant, already has the seeds of the suffering that is a common denominator of all human experience” (Young) This is because things change and pass away; everything and everyone we love will someday pass away.…
“Happiness and Misery are the names of two extremes, the utmost bound where we know not…But of some degrees of both, we have very lively impressions, made by several instances of Delight and Joy on the one side and Torment and Sorrow on the other; which, for shortness sake, I shall comprehend under the names of Pleasure and Pain, there being pleasure and pain of the Mind as well as the Body…Happiness then in its full extent is the utmost Pleasure we are capable of, and Misery the utmost pain”. (1894,…
The most common means of managing the pain that this world brings would be that of a superficial means. People will forsake all knowledge, or pursuit of thereof, to find a menial escape from their pain. Consumers find it in their possessions, lovers in their love, people persons in their friends and family, musicians in their music, everyone in their opiates and vices, and so on and so on. It is the easiest form of mental escape, temporary ignorance. Levi The Poet…
“Suffering is the price of being alive.”; “make use of suffering.” These straight forward quotes sourced from the thoughts of Judy Collins and Henri-Frederic Amiel are produced from different origins but compatible. Collins’s is stemmed from the idea that suffering cannot be avoided and Amiel’s is from his philosophy of the art of living. Most people try to deny and avoid the path of suffering. Yet, they often fail to realize that no matter how many detours they take around suffering, the construction of it is still going to be there. Might even relocate closer to them where they are forced to really deal with it. In Sophocles play Oedipus Rex, Oedipus, the king of Thebes suffering comes from personal and criminal revelations. Somewhat similar but not nearly as extreme is and/or was the origin of my suffering. Good thing is that, people gain wisdom from suffering through growth and acceptance.…

Furthermore, education is the most important aspect in people’s lives. It is becoming even more important than it has been in the past. In today's society, education is essential in order to be successful economically and socially. The benefits of education are boundless. I believe the stages from elementary to high school; students are getting an inadequate amount of education. Furthermore, education is a mandatory process. Individuals who continue their education in colleges and universities will become more experienced meanwhile increasing their chances of getting a well-paid job.…
Earning a college degree not only leads to great personal satisfaction, but enables individuals to gain a higher ranking in the workplace hierarchy. From this experience, we gain added responsibility. This specialized knowledge leads to increased 'success ' and therefore increased power. As a result, we come to manage more people and earn more money. Similarly, teachers and parents consider knowledge as a defining factor in becoming accomplished leaders. Teachers earn degrees and encourage their pupils to do the same. They in turn pass these expectations on to their own children. Thus, knowledge can clearly be seen as a powerful entity which contributes to our success. Let us consider an alternative metaphor, “Knowledge is Pain.” With increased knowledge comes a deeper insight of the world around us. Can such knowledge bring a heightened sense of pain and unhappiness?…
An education provides people not only with the academic skills required, but also the social skills such as having the self confidence and belief in ones self to achieve a fulfilling and happy life. It is every child’s human right to receive such an education from early years to higher, and therefore several stages in which they must travel for this to happen.…
The first Noble Truth quotes that “birth is attended with pain, decay is painful, disease is painful and death is painful.” There are many ways in which we are able to feel pain whether in the body, the mind and in life. All of these aspects can feel tired, discouraged, or experience anxiety or anguish. There is another quote later on during the explanation on how “living means sorrow”. Which is a very profound statement, which may seem very dark but it also allows us to see that we must be realistic. Nothing or everything can be perfect, no matter what it is your doing you have to set yourself up for some sort of misery and deal with it. And with recognizing this sorrow and misery, as times get harder you as some people would say sweat the small stuff, meaning that you would forget about the minute details.…
The technology that we invented in order to make our lives easier might in fact turn our lives for the worst. In Pain won’t kill you by Jonathan Franzen, he talks about our social life which is revolving around technology rather than the society itself. In every moment of our lives the advance of technology is thriving and expanding exponentially. We humans cannot do anything but get greedy and try to get our hands on everything possible. The act of socializing with the people around us has disappeared and the new gadgets have taken over. People are becoming narcissistic and self-absorbing because of the newly created technology that is being pushed by society.…
First of all let us see the definition of "hardship" and "mature". "Hardship" means suffering or discomfort that arises in life, perhaps trivial or serious. And "mature" means well developed both mentally and physically. The reason why we call it hardship is because itself hampers the progression. As we try our best to avoid the hardship, which is not necessary for us to mature during our up growth. For instance the SARS is a kind of hardship. Almost everyone scare about it. They wear masks; have medicines to prevent themselves from infected. On the other hand the people who have been infected try their best to recover from the terrible disease as soon as possible. The reason here is clear this kind of hardship is not necessary for young students to mature. Otherwise, there will be no need for hospitals and other kinds of healthy organizations to exist, and the whole nation even the world will be eager to be infected the SARS. Besides disease, other kinds of hardship also bring a lot of bitterness and have much negative effect on people. Let us look back on history; if there were no despotism in medieval, the talents Bruno would not be burned to death in Rome. If there were no Clearing Reactionary Movement in Soviet, thousands of righteous intellectual would not die in gulag. Here we see the hardship experience is not necessary for young students to mature.…
