“What deep wounds ever closed without a scar?”
“There is something beautiful about all scars of whatever nature. A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed and healed, done with.”
“Remember also that scars of all sorts are all right. Scars are wounds that have healed, not without a trace, but have healed nonetheless. Think of all the scar tissue around Christ's heart, Jesus our wounded healer.”
“Scars exist to show that I existed. I myself don’t have any scars, but every single one of my friends has a healed up knife wound deep in their back. ”
“without my wounds, who was i? my scars were my face, my past was my life.”
“The defects of the mind arelike the wounds of the body. Whatever care we take to heal them the scars ever remain, and there is always danger of their reopening.”
