I understand, my friend, that you have been hurt

…by people whom you had least expected to hurt.

Take your time to process that. Learn the lessons that pain caused you. Learn how to behave differently with them, in a wiser, more evolved manner.

But my friend, is it okay if you inflict that pain onto everyone else?

One of the biggest joys in life is being surrounded by people who truly care for you, not just for the ones who show it off.

It is for these people, and more so, for yourself that you need to heal from the unexpected but inevitable wounds life throws at everyone.

If you don’t heal what hurt you, you’ll bleed on people who didn’t cut you,” said the author Isabella De Bruno.
