ABSTRACT

We think of choreography as relating to dance. On the surface of it, that's a pretty far-out metaphor to describe the experience of one in pain. However, if we think of some things (people, factors, situations) as shifting or moving in relation to other things (people, factors, situations) then we can certainly apply the concept of choreography to what happens in the life of a person in pain as his or her whole life begins to inevitably revolve around that pam.
