The Cure of Pain

     "The world will know no peace without pain."- Pain from Naruto Shippuden.
     Even though he's very evil and a dangerous person, I think that he's right. Like in many fairy tales and stories, there is always a conflict. To resolve a conflict, someone goes out on a quest and when they resolve the conflict, there is usually THE END in big letters. Where did this come from and how did this come to be the end? I think what really makes the conflict so important and meaningful is the pain behind it. Conflicts bring about cooperation, togetherness, and a need to solve it. Pain brings about peace between people.
     Sometimes you need to undergo a form of pain, so later on it will bring about peace. Awhile ago, my grandmother passed away, and even though it was very painful to take in, it caused my family to come together from across the world. The tears brought laughter and the sorrow brought celebration. I know for many people, it is one of the hardest things to deal with, but sometimes pain could be the start of something new and graceful. In naruto, even terrible things seem to keep on happening to naruto and his friends, like Sasuke leaving and joining Orochimaru and Jirachi dying, it was bound to happen and although it was tough to deal with, you never know. Naruto might not have been as strong as he is now amd not ne able to save all the his friends form all the evil and danger. Pain is like saying "see you later," to  a friend because you may not be seeing them for awhile, you're going to see him tomorrow at school. In Naruto, a beast named Nine Tailed Fox, and was so strong, the only way to stop it was by sealing it into a baby which was naruto. Evertime naruto feels a great form of pain , a part of the fox's power takes over naruto. When the pain goes away, naruto goes back to regular. 
     Pain is like a cut. It may hurt when you get it and look bloody, but after awhile, your skin will form a scab, and soon enough, before you know it, the cut is healed. Pain is never a scar. Although we don't see it as something good, who knows? It might end up changing your life for the better. What I like to think of it is that today, its a painful discard, but tomorrow, its a great gift, so although you broke your DS, a DSI will be waiting under your christmas tree.
