You Always Hurt the One You Love

The Mill Brothers sang a song that has a lot of truth in it. It is titled, "You Always Hurt the One You Love." It goes on to say, "The ones you shouldn't hurt at all." I've been thinking a lot lately about the words of that song and how often it is true in real life, in our lives and the lives of our family and friends. We come home to the people who love us the most, to the place of home, which should be our castle, and that is where we let our real selves out, ending up hurting those we love. It shouldn't be that way, folks. Some people can be in the hottest argument ever and a stranger walks in and you would never know the anger that was going on before their appearance. Sad, isn't it? Why in the world would we be hateful and harsh and so unloving and unforgiving to those who are closest to us and who love us the most? There's something wrong in our being so free to always hurt the ones we love. We better rethink this ungodly attitude. Yep, I'm just a thinking today and that's the way I see it.
