Past Pains

So I have discovered pain never really goes away.
I knew that before but today has pushed that fact again.

The death of loves, the relational strains, the unknowable answers of "what could of happened", the uncomforties of tragedy, the many consequences of bad decisions made in rushed moments, the understanding that past pain will lessen day by day but will always be there.

Greif is to big to diminish and sorrow is to great to overcome in a mortal and finite body.

What to do with these pains when they scab over and then are ripped open again?

Weep for the moment and then get up and start all over again.

That is how you understand and deal with the past.

Then approach everyone else in love so the past will never have to repeat itself in the same context.
