scar.

scar: n. a mark left on the skin after a surface injury or wound has healed.


i tend to look at my scar from now and then, not because it hurts, but because i see how strong i became. a scar resembles pain, its there not to remind us of the pain we went trough, but to remind us that like the 'pain', everything heals. if you have a scar then you know exactly what i am talking about. for example, the scar was created from a scrape, a burn, or a serious injury; but that injury got healed. depending on how 'serious' the injury was, depends on the time it will take to heal. have you ever seen a scar that hasnt heal? experiences, problems tend to take the role of the 'scar' because they leave an injury in our hearts and lifes. it once hurted so much, and now that the scar is healed we look at it & say "i remember when it hurted me soo much". when we have a scar, we have to be careful to not hurt that scar again, because it can give us a stronger pain. sometimes it takes us longer to recover because some problems and experiences leave serious damage in us, but like the litle wounds, they heal too. TIME HEALS the worst injuries in our lifes and hearts. they say its not good to look at the past, but i like to look at the past from now on; it doesnt take me back into 'regret' but it allows me to see how far ive gone, and how now more than ever i have to be ready for the injuries(problems/situations) that are on my way. the situations that will cause a scar, but a scar that will heal and will remind me that although im full of scars, i havent gave up! :))
