Pulled through grinding gears of mirrored faces

If - as a child - you decide to hold your heart up to light, and find yourself holding your palm up to flame, your parents will not likely scald you for the weakness of your vessel against the elements, instead explaining that untamed heat will not consider your weaknesses, and that your power over it is in your own self control. If - as an adult - you hold an infants palm to flame, you likely have never scrutinized your heart under light. What process is it which scalds you then? That, if not a friend, would be honesty. One which could stretch beyond your nerve endings.

If you are a single celled organism, you probably need to divide a few times before you are made aware of this.
