Why do we feel pain?

Pain is a signal that the body has been damaged or something is wrong. In evolutionary terms pain was a signal which told us to stop what we were doing or to take alternative action.

Because of the danger involved in pain the pain signal had to be strong and hard to ignore. The pain signal is closely linked to what is known as the 'Flight or Fight Syndrome'. This is where our body is put into 'ALARM' status. Our muscles receive more blood flow and oxygen, our heart beats faster, our breathing quickens and we get ready to stand and fight or run from danger.

Hmm... Same thing goes for broken heart. If u experience deep pain and suffer miserably in despair. Don't give up, it's not the end of the world. Take it as a signal to take alternative routes in ur life. The world is still beautiful. :)
