I was pondering both literally and metaphorically the other day. I think sometimes we get used to feeling numb in a certain area and maybe we become unconciously afraid of either feeling in that area again, or going through the process to regain sensation. While this thought was specifically birthed from my pinched nerve from the misalignment of my spine (for the past 8 years) causing me half my back to be void of sensation....I thought that it definitely relates to life emotionally as well.
p.s. I have cable now AND internet. Big spenda!
