“Sometimes to heal, you must first get hurt.”
“Sometimes the things that are good for you, in the long run, hurt for a little while when you first get to them.”
“Sometimes the only thing to do is to take the thing that you must have. Even if someone gets hurt.”
“To heal physically, one must heal the emotional aspect of the issue first or it will resurface in another way.”
“Sometimes you must seem to hurt something in order to do good for it.”
“To age is to embrace a slow hurt inside and out, to collect scars like rings on a tree, dark and withered and sometimes only visible if someone cuts deep enough. Scars keep the past close enough to touch, but healing is forgetting. Healing invites another cut. Healing is the tide that smoothes away our line in the sand. For life to begin, the damage must be permanent.”
