“I used to be ashamed of my scars until I realized they are reminders that I have found better days and that the journey to find them was worth it.” ~ LaWhimsy
This quote is such a powerful one, for who among us doesn’t have scars? Some scars are physical, caused by wounds accidental and deliberate. Others are of the mental kinds, wounds created in the mind, heart, and soul. Some are both, the physical a sign and mirror of the linked interior scars. I still struggle with completely accepting all of my scars, especially those I gave myself, inflicted in moments of pain and yearning. As I continue to grow and learn, I’ve found that my scars are reminders. Reminders that I’m still here, still living, and that I’ve found better days. My scars have created a unique road map of where I’ve been, who I was and where I’m going. And you know what? The journey my scars are showing me that the journey to discover these better days has been worth it. I’ve been worth it. The better days are always worth striving for, scars and all.
Namaste ~ Ella
