Relativity
Who says Relativity has to do only with Physics?
Here's an interesting thought:
What if every day of our life we are in pain. The only catch is, we've grown accustomed to it -- we've grown to endure the pain. What's more, what if one day there is someone born with a "defect" and didn't feel pain. One day he stumbles across some thing in the world that puts him into the pain everyone else is constantly in. How would the boy describe his pain? Would anyone else understand it?
What's even more interesting to think about is, what if he WAS able to describe the pain and what caused it; and this description led to a way to "cure" the rest of the world's population. Would the boy be considered a savior? Would people try and stop him, from distributing the cure?
Ponder that!
