BG 13.7: Desire and aversion, happiness and misery, the body, consciousness, and the will—all these comprise the field and its modifications.

I lie in my bed. Turn the last page of the book. Gently put it down on the side. Infuriated and devastated. Immobility seeps in. Disillusionment. Close my eyes in defiance of the world around me. No. In hopelessness. No. In anger. Give up. Deep breath. Reminisce about MY home. That mango tree in the backyard because it's summer. The weight of raw mangoes is too much for it to bear so it sheds a few in the night and stands tall each morning as if it knows nothing about the bed of green sprawled at its feet. Me and my brother eat a few and collect the rest. Ma prepares pickle. Indelible taste of hot and sweet and sour and spicy. Home. Smile. Open eyes. See the darkness of the illuminated world. But something is different now. A tiny flame sits hidden somewhere, but the light it emits gives it away. "Hope" .

"You can't change all that is wrong in this great big world, but you can have an impact, even if it is just a tiny, positive impact on a stranger that receives a smile from you on the street today. There's so much we can do for others, and in the end, what we do for others ends up benefiting us tenfold. So let's do this. Let's make our little worlds amazing today."
-- Craig Ballantyne

PAIN DEFN
International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) agreed in 2020 to narrow it down as “an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage”.
A
The purpose of pain is to warn us that something is wrong; it is a survival mechanism that helps to keep us safe from dangers that may threaten our physical integrity. To use a simile: it is an alarm system that our brain has to tell us that we are at risk and that urges us to get to safety. And it is unpleasant so that we feel the need to avoid it.

In the 1960s, Roland Melzack and Patrick Wall proposed their Gate Control Theory. According to this, there is a gate in the spinal cord that allows or disallows painful stimuli to pass through to the brain.

PAIN FELT WORST AT 0400
The worst time? 4 a.m.. A study published in Brain last September also points to circadian rhythms as a possible key player in the phenomenon of nocturnal accentuation. A

Inès Daguet and her colleagues conducted a novel laboratory study in which they found that the time of day when pain (experimentally induced, in this case) is most intensely perceived is at 4am. One possible explanation is sleep deprivation, as it has also been shown to be influential, but in Daguet’s model, the weight of circadian rhythms was much greater. These physical and mental changes we experience may be related to the cyclical levels of hormones we have during the day, such as cortisol, which is related to the immune system and inflammation, and melatonin

King have published a comment on the above study where they point out that from an evolutionary perspective, we are most vulnerable to predators at night, because that is when we sleep. It makes sense, therefore, that a lower intensity of stimuli would be sufficient to wake us up to potential danger. A a
