Life with out pain

Why do we find so much pain in life. I know that we could look in the bible and find the answer to the questions with sin but what is the point. We know what we need to do to live a good and fulling life but more often then not we make the choice to go are own way and not follow what God has panned for us. I have talked to several people this week who know that they are making or have made poor choices in life and still choose to follow them or not do the work to try and get healed from the pain. When we make choices to serve are self and not God or the people He has placed in are life it more often then not choose not only pain in them but are self also. Now I'm not saying that I am free from doing dumb any who knows me knows I have done more then my fair share of stupid things in life. I have to ask my self why is sin so sweet when it only leaves a biter taste in our mouth once the fun is gone. How much pain must we live threw till we learn that a little fun of self serving leaves us more empty then before. If we know what to do to tray and at the very least fix the problem why don't we try. I'm so sick of seeing people hurt each other planed or not. I guess when we live in a fallen world it is just the way things go but does that mean we have to accept or can we hope and pray for a change in the way things work. I know that I look at the choices I make every day and wonder why did I make the choice to do something so selfish when I know that if I would have made a different choice the joy and happens would have lasted longer and maybe blessed someone in my life. I pray that some day I will stop wanting to take care of myself and take care of the people in my life and follow the path that God has laid out for me. Maybe when that day comes we will see life with out pain.
