One of the final words about preventing and removing emotional hurts is to live creatively. If that be the case, we must be willing to be a little vulnerable. We must be willing to be hurt a little if necessary in creative living. A lot of people need a thicker and tougher emotional skin than they have. But they need only a tough emotional hide or epidermis not a shell.
To trust, to love, to open ourselves to emotional communication with other people is to run the risk of being hurt. If we are hurt once, we can do one of two things: We can build a thick protective shell or scar tissue, to prevent being hurt again, like an oyster. Or we can “turn the other cheek”, remain vulnerable and go on living creatively. An oyster is never “hurt”. It has a thick shell which protects it from everything. It is isolated. An oyster is secure, but not creative. It cannot go after what he wants – he must wait for it to come to him. An oyster knows none of the “hurt” of emotional communication with his environment but neither can an oyster know the joys. The joys of creative living are more and worthwhile compared to the hurts that come with it. I therefore urge you to live creatively but to do so, you must;
Do more than think. ……………………………………, You’ll have to create
Do more than share……………………………………….you’ll need to do
Do more than forgive…………………………………….Forget
Do more than receive……………………………………You’ll have to reciprocate…………………Cheers
