KEEPING MY WOUNDS FRESH It happened years ago. I was learning to ride a bicycle and hurt myself. The wound was deep and it took a lot of time to heal. The pain, it seemed was a part of my body and so after some time I started rubbing my own wound to keep it fresh. I had almost forgotten the feeling of a painless body and did not want to get over the pain. At last my doctor told me that by rubbing that wound what I was missing; the freedom of moving without any feeling of pain. I trusted him and when the wound got healed, after so many days the feeling of moving my arm painlessly gave me a great joy. That was a lesson I learnt about dealing with the physical pain. But it took me many years to learn that while dealing with emotional pain I was dealing it with the same manner in which I dealt with my wound. I was keeping my emotional pain fresh by rubbing it again with thinking about those people, whose comments and actions hurt me. It was becoming a part of my personality and I was about to forget that it was possible to live a painless emotional life. Once I started forgiving others for what they did to me, I started to feel inner joy and had the freedom to decide whether I would let others hurt me or not.
