Loved Memories

The painful memories are like sharp blades to our hearts, at first we bleed and wound is left and depending on the situation the wounds can be superficial or terrifyingly deep. We then carry around this pain and even the tool that caused it hidden within our thoughts, we tend to hide the more painful thoughts to protect ourselves. As we move on things trigger our brains like the smell of perfume or a certain song and we relive those painful memories, it reopens the wound and we hurt and bleed again. The way that we heal is to take the edge off of the memory, we do that by surrounding ourselves with people who love us and only by the power of love and the desire to heal can we then finally be able to handle the painful memories. We can never eradicate painful memories and nor should we want to, but to allow the sharp edges to be worn down is something that we have to be willing to do. Overshadow the pain with love and never think that you can have enough love.
