Healing

I saw this online and actually posted this in the bereavement forum. It's an interesting way of explaining loss and healing:

A CUT FINGER
A cut finger is numb before it bleeds
it bleeds before it hurts
it hurts until it begins to heal
it forms a scab and itches until finally,
the scab is gone and a small scar is left where once there was a wound.
Grief is the deepest wound you ever had.
Like a cut finger it goes through stages and leaves a scar.

I can't wait for the bleeding to stop, so I can get my scar. Wishing all of us peace to get through our losses and pain, so we can heal.
