Simplified Meaning:
Experiencing physical pain is tough, like when you break a bone or have a bad illness, but feeling deep emotional pain can hurt even more. When someone feels heartbreak, loneliness, or sadness, it affects them in a much deeper way than just a physical injury might. For example, losing a loved one can make someone feel so sad that it’s hard for them to find joy in anything else. This emotional pain affects their heart and spirit, making everyday life feel heavy and hard to move through. Unlike physical wounds that eventually heal, emotional pain can stay with a person for a very long time. By caring for our emotional health and reaching out for support when needed, we can help prevent this more profound type of pain.
