though it invokes a cry it does not necessarily hurt, as an adult
would feel it. The child had no previous experience to
measure pain from, it only registered discomfort that it needs

in Spirit can acknowledge your pain they never feel it. All
healing needs to take place in your world also, not in the
Spirit world.

perspective we can see a whole new responsibility emerge and
a new approach to how we might care and nurture them. We
