I think growth can be painful (growing pains) because for every gain there is usually some loss involved. Hopefully the gain will outweigh the loss.
Just like new love is wonderful - it is all consuming, passionate and exciting, it must, by definition, stop being new at some point. Then hopefully it will evolve into something that is fulfilling and stable and soothing. But I think we are sad for the loss of excitement and all consuming nature of it.
Maybe this is a stupid example. It just came to mind for me. Kind of like I feel about having emotions. I think I functioned better without the awareness.
