No Pain No Gain

Everyone has a different degree of tolerance for pain. When we accidentally cut ourselves using a knife or handling papers, we could feel a streak of pain going through our body and I believes most of us hatred the feeling of pain.

Can you imagine the pain the devotees went through when they carry the Kavadi during Thaipusam?! They had needles piercing through their skins and tongue and they have to carry the heavy Kavadi and walk a few kilometers from one temple to another. This is really some kind of pain tolerance that only a true devotee could endure!!

I doubt I could ever endure such pain so I rather stick to photography : ))
Here are some photos to share.
