A life without hurt: What would that look like? The ability to get up in the morning, swing your legs out of bed, the hardwood floor actually warm beneath your feet. Your hair wouldn’t tangle when you brushed it. Your gums wouldn’t bleed when you flossed. Toothpaste would offer the taste of nirvana, the shower a salvation. When you bit your lip it wouldn’t reward you with a canker sore. Your teeth couldn’t hurt you. Nothing could.
