“Never be ashamed of a scar. It simply means you were stronger than whatever tried to hurt you” -Unknown
They say the passage of time will heal all wounds but the greater the loss, the deeper the cut and the more difficult the process to become whole again. The pain may fade but the scar serves as a reminder of our suffering and makes the bearer all the more resolved never to be wounded again.
So, as time moves along, we get lost in distractions, act out in frustration, react with aggression, give in to anger and all the while, we plot and plan as we wait to grow stronger and before we know it, the time passes and we are healed ready to begin anew.
“I think scars are like battle wounds. Beautiful in a way, they show what you have been through and how strong you are for coming out of it”- Demi Levato
Be proud of all the “scars” in your life. Each one holds a lifetime’s worth of lessons. There is something beautiful about scars, whatever nature it means the hurt is over, the wound is closed and healed and done with.
My dear; Learn, live, love and smile.
