Retreat and revitalize. I have a tendency to retreat when things seemingly go sideways in my life. I am hurt, wounds not visible to others. Inflicted by words, Word Wounds. Word wounds are little slices of ache and pain, inflicted by others and yes sometimes by oneself. Forget the old nursey rhyme of sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. Not true. Words can cut deep.

Words can cut deeper than any sword. Withdrawal is not a bad idea, especially if it keeps us from escalating a situation. But there probably are a few spoken in ignorance, unaware of the pain they've caused.
