Once a week I strap on fourty pounds of armour and fight using big sticks. I try to avoid getting bruised but it still happens all the time (my wife loves poking at my bruises and watching me flinch).
Being able to walk into a contest against another person where both of you are smiling and trying hard to smack the heck out of each other is such and incredible rush. I got a light taste of that rush when I studied karate and a bit stronger taste when I played paintball. Feeling a length of rattan slamming into your opponent lets you know you've won a contest in a way that you cannot forget.
Most of the people I know believe the two following statements about pain:
1) pain is the best teacher
2) stupidity should be painful
I agree with both...Without pain you would never realize your weak points and you would never know what your body is going through... It is sad when someone cannot feel pain because they can be slowly dying with no idea which isnt really a good thing....The reason I say that is they have no way to know what is happening thus no way to truly stop it...
But that sucks about your wife doing that to you LOL...As if going through it wasnt bad enough she wants to agravate the injury LOL...
