Pain is like when your favorite toy suddenly stops working. It makes you feel upset and uncomfortable, and you just want it to be fixed. Your body sometimes feels like that when something isn’t quite right. It’s a signal telling you to be careful or to stop and rest.
Think of pain like a loud alarm clock. When you’re asleep and the alarm goes off, it wakes you up and makes you pay attention. Pain does the same; it gets your attention so you know something needs to be looked after. It’s your body’s way of saying, ‘Hey, something’s wrong here!’
Pain can also be like a big red stop sign. When you see a stop sign, you know you have to pause and see what’s happening around you. Pain is like that stop sign for your body. It tells you to slow down and take care of yourself.
Sometimes, pain feels like a rainy day. You might feel sad or a bit gloomy, but just like the rain stops and the sun comes out, most pain goes away with time and care.
