“Master, what do I do? What do I do?”
“Eat your rice. Wash your bowl.”
–Zen parable
“Master, the dead demand pudding.”
“Eat your rice. Wash your bowl.”
-Master starts running.
Master: “I use Turn Undead.”
DM: *rolls WIS saving throws for all undead within 30 feet of the master*
Yup, had perfect health until 10 years ago then I got bad discs, arthritis and neuropathy. Now I cannot walk more than a metre or 2 before major ouchies. Enjoy it while you have it.

If you’ve ever listened to Welcome to Nightvale this was one of the first weather reports. Was driving to work one day when it came on and just had to pull over and stare off into the distance for a few minutes.
Great song, I listened to it too much. Still have to revisit it.
There’s bone, hurting, and… juice?
Wake you up bean juice.
You have two states in the timelines of your life.
You are either suffering and it will pass, one way or another.
Or you’re not suffering and at some point in the future when you’re suffering again, you will look back at the moments you weren’t suffering as “the good old days.”
If you’re not currently in extreme mental or physical anguish, you are living in your future’s good memories, no matter how bleak it seems. If you are in extreme mental or physical anguish… this too shall pass.

Being disabled in Amerikkka is basically this. I mean lots of people could feel less pain but government and corporations don’t want that sooooo yeah…
You only feel less pain through addictive drugs! No corrective surgery, or therapy, for you!
And then it suddenly becomes even worse and you’ll yearn back to not the beginning that was the best, but just the previous, only marginally better state.
