Well, I think many people would agree with ^that^ -- but my doctor once told me that pain was the body's way of signaling to us that we are hurting ourselves, and on the verge of a possible injury.

Plus, we can improve our health and enjoy ourselves too ~ that's what motivates me to continue on. For instance, dancing is one of my favorite physical activities becuz it is so much fun that I forget how long I am doing it ...
