For those of you who have a lot of pain, I came up with something that can help you cope and get your mind off of it for a little while. What you do is you think of 5 random words. Try to make them as random as you can. My five words were Tree, pain, coffee, book, and dragon, and then you use those 5 words and make up a very short story with them. The villain in the story can be your pain and so forth. Anyway, I thought this might help someone who's having issues. It helped me.
Tree
Pain
coffee
book
dragon
It doesn't have to be some great masterpiece. This is just you trying to turn your attention off your pain and channel it into something else.
Now before you do this you will want to pray and talk to God about what's bothering you no matter if it is pain or some other issue. Talk to God first then give the problem to Him and Praise Him for the answer and then in the meantime distract yourself with this fun exercise.
So now I will share with you the fun little insane story I wrote using the 5 words that I choose at random. I just choose my words by looking around me. I love trees, and I was in pain and I was drinking Iced Coffee and I had books around me and I thought of pain again and came up with the word Dragon. That's how I choose mine. Now you can choose yours ever how you see fit as long as it's random.
So here is my little fun story. I hope you enjoy it and maybe even get a few laughs at some of the ridiculous things it has in it.
The woods were dark, gloomy almost forbidding enough so to intimidate one to turn back, but this mission was too important Amy thought. I must go on. The trees were swaying back and forth to the wind howling and whispering to one another with each rustle of the leaves. It was as if they were whispering secrets that only they knew. Blinding pain exploded with each step she took. She had barely escaped with her life. The pain had never stopped. Still, she kept on moving toward the deep end of the forest. She had to find the book. She had to save herself and her family from the sudden death at the hands of the monster who called himself The Coffee Maker.
The Coffee Maker was notorious for making really bad coffee. He was once a master at it but it all went away like overnight. Still, The Coffee Maker was the one people went to for loans and such, and each trip he made them drink a cup of his nightmarish coffee. He had a way of making you feel obligated to drink it and drink as much as he wanted you to. The Coffee Maker was also known for his cruelty and violence. Making people stand on their tiptoes chained to a wall drinking his horrible tasting coffee and if they spit it out he would torture them by sticking long doll-making needles inside their ears and piercing their eardrums pouring boiling hot coffee on the inside yelling about now how does it taste. The screams if only they could be heard inside those soundproof walls would have been legendary. He would do this to anyone who owed him money or insulted his coffee.
The book was the only way to defeat The Coffee Maker and put an end to his cruelty. The law could do nothing. Their hands were tied. People were afraid to come forth and tell what they knew. The Coffee Maker had that kind of power of them. They were afraid. That book. I got to find that book Amy told herself. as her ears screamed in pain where she had been tortured. The book was the source of all the coffee makers' power. You get the book and you get the coffee maker. At least that's what his ex-wife The Dragon said. She used to be married to him and left because his cruelty became too much for her to bear and the violence had only begun then.
After she left that's when she got her nickname the dragon. People thought she escaped fire the way only a dragon could. She also made handmade dragons for a living so there was that. She was an expert doll artist and was well known for her artistry and sewing. She had sewn and made countless dolls and dragons and sold them all over the world. She would travel from place to place taking classes and perfecting her art. That's when his husband Frank who later became The Coffee Maker came into contact with the book.
Locals warned him not to touch that book. It was cursed. Whoever was in possession of it would benefit greatly from its ability to help teach him how to make a good cup of coffee, but it was a power that was just too much for some, too much for most. Soon he became obsessed with making coffee and with each cup he made it was better than the last. He soon became world-famous for his coffee, but the coffee got to a place it was no longer enough for him. It didn't satisfy his thirst. He became greedy for money and power and the more money and power the coffee brought in for him the more greedy he became. Soon his love for coffee was no more and all that was left was a cruel violent monster. His coffee no longer tasted like clouds of Heaven, Now it tastes like rotten and rank. No one wanted to drink it. He began to lose it. Scrambling to get back what he once had and failing. He became cruel and abusive to all those around him and committing crimes and acts of violence out on anyone who didn't like his coffee and said so to his face. He was a monster.
That's when his wife left and took the book with her hiding it in the trunk of a large tree in the woods. She knew if anyone found her or the book it would be all over. So she went into hiding. Only a few people knew how to contact her, and Amy was one of them. Alice was The coffee maker's wife's name and She told Amy where the book was hidden years ago in hopes one day she would be brave enough to travel to destroy it before the coffee maker found them again and finished what he started years ago.
Amy's family had been down on their luck and was about to lose their house when they heard of a man who would give them money for just drinking his coffee. They thought wow this is too good to be true, but hey we're desperate so we will try anything. I mean what could it hurt right? Coffee-stained teeth are all. Little did they know. The coffee would be so unbearably bad that they would spit it out right in front of the coffee maker. That's when the coffee maker pulled out a gun and made them go to the back room. The soundproof room. Amy had gotten the coffee maker to trust her to go to the bathroom where she escaped out a tiny window that no normal human could possibly fit into but Amy had been starving since her captivity and had no problems going through the window. Her family was still there though and they were suffering.
It was morning now that Amy had reached the top of the mountain where the large oak tree stood. It was the oldest tree in the forest and right there in the middle was a hollow place where the book was to be laying. As Amy approached the tree she began to feel afraid. What's this book going to do? What does it have in it? As she reached inside to get the book bugs to begin to scurry across the top and over the pages. Yuk, she dropped it. She hated bugs, and right before her eyes, she saw what the book contained. It had ever evil dead the coffee maker had ever done in his quest for fame and revenge. Everything was recorded in this book. Even the things that were being done to her and her family but how since the book was all the way out here? Anyway who was she to question it. All she knew is that someone was keeping track and someone knew more than they were willing to let be known. She tucked the book into her jacket making sure it was bug-free and ran fast down the tall mountain leading out of the woods. Once in town, she called the police and told them everything. They took the book and the coffee maker was arrested.
Last I heard he had actually turned over a new leaf and was sorry for all his cruelty and how he had let greed and the love of money turn him into something inhuman. He wrote letters to all his victims from prison apologizing. Idk if any of them forgave him or not but I was just glad that our part in the story was over and that everyone was safe now. Oops did I say I well I guess you now know who it was that was still writing things in the book before Amy took it? YIKES, I was going to keep that one to myself oh well the cats out of the bag but I guess there's no reason to be afraid now that old Frank is behind bars.
okay guys that's my crazy insane story. Stupid I know but hey like I said this is just for fun and it doesn't have to be a masterpiece. It just has to be fun and something that will take your mind off your troubles if only for a little while. I had an ear infection during this story as you can probably tell which is why I wrote about ears and needles LOL Anyway thanks for giving this a read and I hope you decide to write a story of your own using 5 random words.
