You sting like the bees


Like the fire that ignites, pain can sometimes consume an emotion. I let myself be stung by the bees and felt nothing for awhile. Until I saw my skin swell and felt one of the bees' barbed stinger lingered . A friend told me I have a high tolerance for pain, I could have not known that. Pain is something that is so familiar that tolerance becomes an understatement.

I got stung for the first time two year ago. I can assure you: it hurts.
