That is a wounded body: a body that feels connected to someone who is no longer there.

But young hearts mend easily, and hearts that own half of England have something better to do than to beat faster for love.
We must keep in mind that where the road is crooked, God makes it straight, and where our hearts are wounded, God makes us whole. As we open our hearts in purity and simplicity, admitting to God that we are completely powerless in the area of our problem, His illumination redeems us.
