Not just about hurt
06/08/2008 by Tina.
I have just read one of the most harrowing books. Thankfully it was a work of fiction rather than fact - “The Face of Death” by Cody Mc Fadyen (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Face-Death-Cody-Mcfadyen/dp/0340840102?&camp=2486&linkCode=wsw&tag=edesfieunl-21&creative=8922). Well worth a read if you’re into crime thrillers!
Not the sort of topic I usually write about, preferring to intend my energy toward more positive things, but there was one sentence that struck me as being appropriate:
“…scars are more than reminders of past wounds. They are evidence of healing.”
Scar tissue is a sign that it got better, that it mended - that the wound has closed. It’s a reminder of the incredible healing power of the human body and how much better that we see scars that way than to dwell on the pain that caused them. Especially as our thoughts create our reality!
