"For I am the Lord who heals you."
Exodus 15:26
 |
If you are lucky, you get just get a bruise.
But sometimes, it is just deep and takes a while to heal.
If you are lucky the scars will be small,
and they will be lite and eventually fade away with time.
But sometimes, the cut is just too deep and while the surface may heal,
underneath the wound will remain raw and fresh.
Creating an illusion of everything being ok, when things are far from ok.
Scabs are not a sign of completion of the process. They are just an indication that conditions are conducive for healing and the process is taking place.
Don't forget the itch of the scab is part of the healing, as irritating as it might be.
In time the conditions will improve, and regeneration and growth will place.
Even when the healing is complete, reducing the visible scars sometimes takes your intentional effort.
And this takes time and consistency.
Healing happens within, external assistance is good and is sometimes necessary,
But most of the time it is about sole
and not a team effort.
It comes in different shapes and forms.
Embrace YOUR process and don't try copy someone else's.
