You know the price you have to pay now.
You took it with hesitation--but no intention of retaliating.
It's all your fault now.
You cry in your bed.
Hey, wake up! You'll be alright!
This scenario is a harsher version of the trauma you should experience on a daily basis, but that doesn't mean the feeling has become less rare. There are inconveniences at every step of your way in life, major and minor all the same.
The reality is that--life is built upon learning and more learning, not relearning. The very fact that pain receptors (and the fact we even call and classify unfortunate events as "inconveniences") exist: to prevent you from doing it again, of course!
Friedrich Hegel's dialectics explains this thought. Other famous philosophers like Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles also use Hegelian dialectics build upon the very philosophy of the art of argument, which we will not dive deep into, as it is a topic for another section.
Anyhow, Hegelian dialectics--going off of the work dialectic: the art of reaching the truth from the reasoned arguments--is a specific method or process of argument that utilizes a thesis, antithesis, and synthesis to form a "truth".

Anyhow, Hegelian dialectics--going off of the work dialectic: the art of reaching the truth from the reasoned arguments--is a specific method or process of argument that utilizes a thesis, antithesis, and synthesis to form a "truth".
- Thesis: A reasoned argument that starts the dialectical process
- Antithesis: A refutation of some sort of the previous thesis.
- Synthesis: The reasoned truth formed when the thesis and the antithesis combine, forming a resolution to the thesis and the antithesis.
These, going in chronological order, will get you to a more or less approved and correct version of the synthesis.
...
So now you have a conclusion.
But you got here through many trials of thesis and anti-thesis trying, remember? Let me remind you that the very fact that you have a conclusion--any conclusion--is proof that you have enough trial and error).
Therefore, however many negative things happen in your life, always learn from them as they are always recurring. The conclusion is always important.
Even if it doesn't seem so--think about a time which it did--just think) it will definitely. And if not to you, maybe to someone else! Be good to yourself and to the world.
Heidy out!
