aches and pains

I’ve been thinking about how some things can be felt vicariously - is feeling hurt one of them?  

Remember when we were little, we were always told - “Don’t hurt yourself!”, just because we loved putting our hands in between doors,  or run too fast on cracked pavement. But when you think about now, we rarely get hurt by the things we do to ourselves anymore. Now, we hurt from each other, and unfortunately, at times, we just hurt each other.
