We do not always hurt ourselves by accident. Sometimes, we do it knowingly. A small discomfort appears, and instead of letting it heal, we keep going back to it. We touch it, question it, revisit it. Not because it helps, but because something within us wants resolution. The same pattern shows up in our conversations. We ask people about their pain, again and again, believing we are showing care. But often, we are only reopening what has not yet healed. Healing does not always need answers. Sometimes, it simply needs space.
