Why do the little owies and ouchies seem to hurt the worst?
Yes, I used the words owies and ouchies!
I know breaking a bone, falling down and bruising yourself, twisting an ankle, just to name a few are things that are incredibly painful, but doesn’t it seem like the little things hurt like you know what!
For example…how bad did that papercut you got hurt? Stub your toe on the bed? Step on the Lego or toy car in the middle of the night? Catch your fingernail and it bent all the way back? Bit the inside of your cheek? Swung an arm and hit the wall or table? Or maybe, like me, today, which inspired this post, bit the side of your tongue? [then I did the fingernail thing too!]
The expression is “it’s the little things” I think they were referring to the little things that make the difference, more on a positive note, but in this case, it’s definitely the little things that make you say “OWWWW!”
That’s all.
