hmm, ever been injured or maybe cut yourself badly? our instinct is to cover it up! the next words we hear are "let me see it " we're scared to look, so we move our hand and after a quick glimpse close our eyes or turn away. still too numb or in shock to feel the pain that we know will surely come. When a person is seriously injured, all pretenses fall aside. There are no "right words" it's just what are you feeling? where does it hurt? and,"let me help you". I have no problem being open and vulnerable here, (naked-ish) I'm just trying to show you that it's a safe place here. I can babble on like some idiot about stuff that's really all my fault and people will still try to lift me up and offer me great advice. now, what were you wanting to say?
