Hurt ...

Has anyone experienced hurt? You might think this is a silly question - but it's not. As humans, we experience all types of pain, and our bodies often take care of it. For example, how many times have you hit your toe, and the pain receptors in your body, after some time, will take care of that pain, and it will allow you to forget about it throughout the course of the day? But what happens when you have so many emotions safeguarded, and all of a sudden you receive a call th
