About Process...

I found a picture of your smiling face
Bringing old memories that I had locked away
The burden of anger from a heart filled with pain
Was finally lifted and I smile at you again

If time is a healer
Then all hearts that break
Are put back together again
'Cause love heals the wound it makes

I spoke such harsh words before goodbye
Well I wanted to hurt you for the tears you made
(You made me cry)
All my hopes and dreams, well they started vanishing
Those tender hurt feelings became a dangerous thing

If time is a healer
Then all hearts that break
Are put back together again
'Cause love heals the wound it makes

All of the years we spent together
Well they're part of my life forever
I hold the joy with the pain
And the truth is I miss you, my friend

Well, time is a healer
Then all hearts that break
Are put back together again
'Cause love heals the wound it makes

(Time is A Healer - Eva Cassidy)

Healing may feel like a hundred year process. In the painful stage, you might do foolish things, say stupid words, which you will most probably regret later. But you learn a lot of valuable lessons during the journey, and in the end it will bring about the most precious gift: a stronger you, and hopefully a better and wiser you. When the day comes, you may look back and feel grateful, or even honored, that you have to take the rough path before you arrive at your final destination. Because, otherwise, you may not be able to appreciate what you get at last.
