HBFS: harder, better, faster, stronger

My doctor the other day was trying to pierce through a cyst I have in my eyelid and he said in surprise "Gosh, are you not in pain? You're so strong, how can you not feel this?"

I smiled, thinking that this is not my idea of pain. I have experienced loads more pain than that in my life. I am pretty tolerant to physical pain. But yes, the doctor was right, I realize now, I am stronger than I thought, stronger than the average you... 

Whenever something hurts me,  I spend time on my own to resume normal activity. I already feel better, faster, stronger. You bloody man, you thought I would go down so easily? Pfff, no way.

I am alive and I am here for long.
