"Oh, that word," Grandpa responded. I looked up into his big eyes, so full of mystery to me then. "That's a hurtful word. People say it when they want to hurt us, son." He was grieved, "But it doesn't hurt us. It only hurts them."
"Is that why they look so angry, Papa?"
"That's why they look so angry. They are hurting a great deal inside."
I am sorry for my hurtful teasing..please forgive me.
