Time - Does It Really Heal?

Time.
People believed that time heals all wounds.
Many would testify that indeed it does heal.
Some would say that as time passes by the pain fades away.
Hurt people move on. They get new hobbies, new friends, new relationships, new life.
They claim they are healed.That the wound has turned into a scar. No longer bleeding, no longer aching.

Does time really heal? Does it really?

I have gone through a lot of pit holes, traps, battlefields and I have never gotten out unwounded. 

There would always be scratches, stabs or even burns. And I would be in pain for days, months and even years. 

I would find remedies. Just as I have always heard from experts, wait it out. Time heals. 

Then as the clock continues to turn, like normal people, I recovered. 

It's seems to me that indeed the infamous saying is true. But then again, am I really healed?

We live. We thrive. We enter new battlefields everyday. We make allies, we make enemies. 
As vulnerable human beings, we get cut, shot or worst killed. We cry. We bleed. We feel the agonizing pangs of pain. 

And we remember. All the heartaches and broken dreams in the past, they all come back to us as we cry out loud. 

Pain has the ability to push us back to the past. This is when we question our healing. 

Are we healed? Does time really heal? 

I say it does because we like to believe that it does.
Life is full of limitations. Even time has it's own limitation.
We may feel as if we are healed because time makes forget the pain.
It gives us ample time to bleed the poison out and prevent further intoxication.
It gives us enough time to find a replacement to the injured part.
It gives us the time we need to find something to patch the wound up with.
It makes us see that the wound is turning into scar since we are taught that scar equals healing.
However, there are internal wounds as well.
Then we get fixed through the inside. And once again we wait. Time for time to do it's job.
Some time later we stand up and claim we are healed.
Yet again I ask, are we?

There is a kind of wound that cuts through the superficial layers visible to the eye, through the heart, through the mind. 

It is too deep that it reaches the soul. This wound does not induce bleeding nor aching. It is barely felt. 

Therefore, it is unrecognized. Even time is unaware of it.
Time cannot phatom the depth of it. 

Only the Great Divine, the Divine Healer can.

When we get hurt, time heals the wound. The wound we acknowledged. The wound that we see and feel. 

Time gives us the satisfaction we want. So we say we are healed. 
But are we, really?
