I was confused when I read this. Shouldn't it be... Those who bandage over their emotional wounds and those who hurt others to avoid taking their bandages off?
ReplyDeleteMmm, that's a different interpretation. TATKOPS are good like that - not one meaning. What I meant was that we each have emotional wounds and we are very defensive of them - we construct all sorts of psychological and behavioural defences around them - and if anyone challenges our defences, well we hurt them rather than looking - or taking off the bandaging off our wounds.
