"Time heals all wounds...right?" No, not if nothing changes. Not if you do nothing, stay the same. Not if you don't change what you do, how you think. Not if nothing changes. Nothing changes if you don't change. - paraphrase of a conversation from an episode of "House", the TV series |

It depends on the kind of wound. Physical pain ends up going, mental wounds stay unless your brain is driven to something less painful — unless change occurs. I love to watch "House" — because it often leads me to thinking that what matters is not what I'd tend to make matter — because it leads me to changing what I focus on  Time has nothing to do with focusing on the right things, right? Mmm... I like reading you as I like watching that TV series.  SION

Hi bmyx2002, only if you continue to write the history of life and fill your story with new pages of life, you would be too busy to think about whether time heals or doesn't heal wounds. Instead you would be so busy planning your everyday of your life, your future. Love life! Best wishes to you.

Thanks to both repliers. I like the comments on House and emotional wounds. I like that show a lot too, because of how House tends to dig into why people do what they do. In a way, I also identify very well with him, since he walks around with his own pain, and it really isn't the limping knee, and the vicoden isn't really for physical pain but to deal with his own emotional trauma. If doing tings, having challenging goals, and staying busy made healing happen, it certainly has not for me. I can't say if thinking about too many other things would work. Logically it would, but then one would have to ask if someone can simply chose not to think about something. I've always believed we have choice in what we do, but not always in what we can avoid thinking of. Perhaps we cannot simply ceasing thinking or remembering certain painful emotional events? If so, perhaps that is why some emotional wounds never heal? I don't know. I hope we can eventually cease letting certain memories hurt and that even the worse wounds do fully heal.
