It's like a bruise that you can't help but touch.
Over and over again.
The outcome is always the same, though.
Pain.
And then you show your bruise to other people.
Some will give you sympathy and maybe even ask how you got it.
What do the others do?
They touch it.
Pain.
There must be someone out there, though, that would touch the bruise and heal it.
"Look what happened to me," you would say and show them your wound.
They would ask what happened and then they would touch it.
Pain?
Not this time.
You would look down and the bruise would be gone.
Completely healed by one special person's touch.
What happens if the healer is the same person that caused your bruise?
Will you trust them to touch it again?
Think about it.
... but be reasonable.
*Perhaps they didn't mean to hurt you in the first place.*

you are right. prehaps they didnt. its a hard concept. great way to put it though.
Even if they didn't mean to hurt you, it will never be the same...but yes when you show your bruises to people they usually end up hurting you too.
I think you may have missed the point. :-/
he didnt mean to bruise. our intentions are always good.
