Giving shots to people is one of the few things that amuses me. Not that I want to hurt, I like it because I know it is for their own good.
An example of this is BCG. I gave one to a baby this morning. This vaccine given to newborns will protect them from acquiring Tuberculosis during the most vulnerable years of childhood. However, it will leave a permanent scar on the right shoulder. It may fade a bit over several years, but it is there for life. Mine's still here. I can't remember anymore the hurt when it was injected on me, but somehow I know that if it hadn't been for it, I would be so vulnerable now of that disease.
It's really fascinating how something painful could cause good to someone...
Whenever I have a problem, I always think of it as the BCG vaccine. It's very painful at first and it will leave a horrible scar, but I know it's for my own good cause it'll make me strong.
