You ever saw a pair a scissors?

You notice how they open and close?

Imagine yourself in the middle.

Yeah, you.

You monkey in the middle.

You.

Now, what happens when you are in the middle?

You get cut. You get hurt. You end up broken.

You ever saw a married couple?

Don’t ever try to get in the middle.

You will be shred.

(analogy borrowed from my assistant pastor.)
