Then, coming north on the same highway there was another accident, but
this time we were going 3 mph. 

Talk about a headache. 

I know what you are thinking. You are thinking that my headache is not
nearly as bad as my wife's headache. All I can say is, how do you know? 


One person's headache is very real to them, as real as another person's
headache is to them. 

The problem with my headache on the highway was, I could not take any
medication, lie down and put a heating pad on my neck and go to sleep. 
I had to stay awake and watch where in the world I was going even 
though I was not going very fast. 

Gladly would I have traded my headache on the highway for her headache
on the couch. 

Of course, there is always the idea that I cause headaches. And I
suppose there's not much I can do about that. Except, maybe, try not to 
cause a headache. But when you're person like me, you don't know you're 
causing a headache until you've caused that headache. 

What would life be without headaches either getting them or giving them?
I suppose that's what life is all about. If you think you can live your 
life without getting or giving a headache you are in for a truly severe 
migraine. 

As I thought about this I was reminded of a very special verse of
Scripture. “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and 
there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall 
there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away” 
(Revelation 21:4). 

In this life you can't get away from headaches, but I have something to
look forward to and that is what God has for me.
