    I'm pretty selfish, I couldn't give a fuck what others experience. I just wish I wasn't.

    I guess I hope nobody has to but it's not something I'm thinking about while I'm in pain.

    In general, I don't want others to experience some of the pain I've experienced. However if I am completely honest, I would like ignorant people to feel how painfully stupid their comments can be.

    I certainly wouldn't want anyone else to feel my pain, but I often wish I could feel what other people's pain is like so I could empathize better.

    Generally I find myself wishing no one else had to go through that.
    I became ill last month. Just for a day, and I recovered. It was hell though, I don't get ill very often. I felt very bad afterwards, for my friends who deal with illness on a regular basis. It made me thankful to be healthy as I am. I couldn't imagine living like that.

    Neither. All I care about is it being over.

    I always wished no one had to go through it. Same when I see someone going through something bad, I wish they didn't have to. I'd rather go through it for them because I'm strong enough to where I can handle a lot. Though, I know everything has its silver lining so I wouldn't want to take that away from someone. Taking someones bad is also taking the good that comes out of the suffering.

    I wish no one had to go through these things but I know it's a necessary part of life in order for people to grow.

        I wish everyone had to experience having to hold on to the crapper with both hands or actually blast off like me.
