HEALING ISN'T FORCED

Someone said healing isn't literally the act of fixation or recovery within a reasonable amount of time. But it is a non-linear process of learning to live with the pain.

This is what part of living actually is. I'm learning... that every single day, you devotedly learn to carry on with whatever pain or emotions that run through you. Some even sorely make a home in you and leave a mark that does not smoothly or easily fade, even with the departure of time. But irrespective, you learn to significantly live with it, even when you think you can't. You learn to maybe appreciate it in a rather non-conforming way. Some hurt becomes part of what we are and transforms into something conscious, something intentional within us. We learn to weave and silently dissolve around the realization, with its wisdoms, rather than fiercely shoving our way around it. This is what I sincerely comprehend.
