Pain is Always There

There is obviously all the time but I think at one point it controlled me, my injury controlled me and that’s where you get into that depression and the sense of not wanting to do anything and you’re letting your injury control you. And there’s days where, I mean I am in pain all the time but there’s different obviously variations of pain or how much I let the pain bother me. There’s some days I don’t get up or I don’t do anything all day but there are other days like I feel like, okay I feel better, I am going to go do something. Everyone is going to have those days. You’re not going to have perfect days anymore, I’m not going to have perfect days anymore and as I get older it’s not going to get any better but I take advantage of every chance I can get to go out and make the best of every day. The pain is always there it’s just the tolerance goes up.
