YOUR EYES DO NOT SEE AND PAIN IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD

You would probably be offended if someone said your pain was all in your head. But guess what - that is actually true. Pain is constructed entirely in the brain. Just because pain is in your head does'nt make it less real. In fact it's your brain that literally creates what your body feels.  For example, if you accidentally hit your finger with a hammer, it might seem that you feel the pain immediately in your hand. But that is wrong. In reality, there is a very short delay that allows pain messages to be sent from nerve endings in your finger up your arm to your spinal cord and then to the correct area of the brain. Only when the signals arrive at the brain do you feel the pain and then you say "Ouch", or some other four-letter word like feck or fack.
