What Are You Wearing?

Is that a suit of armor? Can you take it off?  As humans we hurt and then we try to protect ourselves from it ever happening again.  Unfortunately, we cannot build walls (or wear suits) that close our hearts only to what is painful.  A closed heart is a closed heart.  So how do we navigate a world where to keep an open heart feels too painful, but to close it and live in the mind would make us cold and unfeeling?  How can we find balance—safe ways to wear only our own skin?
