People are left to make what they will with the pains put upon them.

Pain is rather interesting to think about, because its not always bad and its opposite, pleasure, is not always good. Maybe they are not opposites but more like vectors representing the same stimulus in different directions, where the direction is influenced by your mind. For example a pleasure can wear out its welcome, become annoying, and then suddenly your mind has turned a pleasure into a pain. So if its all in your head why wouldn’t you turn every pain into a pleasure?

Makes me wonder about what drives people, is it to embrace pleasure or to avoid pain? Why do you act the way you do? Am I writing this for the pleasure of exploring thought or am I filling time to evade a pain? I can say both enter my mind so I must be influenced by them both as well.
