Once, when I was little, I hurt my arm, the doctor who healed me told me what the process is to heal the wounds, some wounds need to be sewn, they need stitches, others don’t, but they all need care and care. time to heal completely. Sometimes the wound disappears without leaving marks, but sometimes leaves small or large scars.
A wound on the soul is like a physical wound on the body, it is not visible, but it hurts deep in our being, it makes us suffer, and only the passage of time and our will to overcome the cure. But, as with a physical injury, it can also leave scars that will remind us forever how we feel.
- Everyone lives in their life situations that are very difficult to forget.
- That hurt us.
- We may have gone through a complicated childhood.
- The end of a traumatic relationship.
- The death of a loved one.
- A work situation that made us feel bad.
- Situations that open wounds on the soul.
Situations that have hurt us or negatively affected us may be very different, but we are the only ones who can reflect and control how the experiences we live affect us.
The first step to forget is to accept. It is not necessary to fully bury memory, because remembering is a very human thing that cannot be avoided, but we must make an effort to accept memory, remembrance, leave the fact in our history and live with it in peace.
It is not about forgetting completely, but this suffering does not invade us every time our mind is invaded by a painful memory.
Once we have accepted, we can forgive. It is not a question of forgiving others, but of forgiving, without blaming ourselves, knowing that the past is made and cannot be changed, but that the future is in our hands to live it in a new way, without letting us influence by the negative memories that condition us.
If we learn to see everything that has hurt us as past facts, we can also understand that there are cases where it is necessary to assume our responsibility, it is not the same as feeling guilty, but it is about seeing the facts objectively and learning them.
The wounds of the soul are sometimes more painful than those of the body and last much longer until they close, but there comes a time when we must dare and decide to take control of our lives and be ourselves, controlling and expressing our feelings. Emotions
Taking control of one’s life is an act that requires courage and honesty means being realistic and seeing that if something in our lives is wrong or not what we want, the only person who can do something is ourselves, we don’t depend on any other person or situations outside of us.
What happens every day in your life depends solely on your attitude, what you do or don’t do, your smile, your joy, your will to overcome.
It is true that time heals everything, or at least allows us to have a different perspective. While not all of us need the same time to clear our minds and eliminate painful memories, time helps everyone.
Each person is very different from the other, and our fight against painful memories or in situations that have hurt us in life needs time, which can be more or less long.
A romantic breakup with someone we love very much is a very difficult thing to forget and accept, but over time, little by little, we realized that maybe it was something that had to happen like this for other people to enter our lives or for us. learn to be alone.
This situation is just an example, but it allows us to see how time, slowly passing, heals our wounds little by little until one day we realize that we are completely healed.
