The truth is time cannot heal all wounds. What time does provide is perspective. When our body is wounded, it can heal but a scar is left behind as a reminder.
When our soul is wounded, the scar is not evident to anyone but you. A scar on the soul is the emotional trauma in the form of a memory of what happened. This leaves us with the dilemma of choosing how we react to the memory.
Perspective... introduces reason informed by understanding that allows us to comprehend the circumstances surrounding the wound. Choosing to forgive and to forget requires an active choice each time the memory surfaces. Sometimes we become stuck in the moment and cannot move forward. Sometimes the perspective that time provides allows us to reason and move forward.
The depth of the wound determines the thickness of the scar and we may never totally recover regardless of the amount of time.
The soul is as complex as it is delicate
