Is it true that time can heal all wounds?

Answer 1

I think it depends on how deep the wound. All hurts are not equal so some heal more quickly than others. I think the first step in healing a wound is forgiving the slicer which is not always easy. We have to remember that forgiving is more for our own comfort than for the offender. Wounds will not heal as long as we give them audience. Hurtful wounds must be looked at as a growing experience and somehow turned into a positive experience as it really does make us a different and (hopefully) a better person for having risen above the experience and somehow gained by the experience. Revengeful thinking and bitterness eats away at your very soul and spirit. Don't go there. Remember, we have ALL been wounded and a few scars only prove you are a loving person. Otherwise you couldn't be hurt. You wouldn't want to be a person who was so unfeeling that you couldn't possible be wounded. Love yourself and forgive the ones who hurt you. That is the only way to go. It may take time to forgive. Sometimes it is not easy.

Answer 2

No it is not true. Unless they are physical wounds, like an open sore that needs time to heal. And even then, wounds normally need a dressing, or even just soap and water to clean.

Emotional wounds, if left to time, will never heal without the emotional work that needs to be done. If not done, then the person's present situation in life will react according to old wounds not taken care of.. You gotta do the work. No pain, no gain, unfortunately is true in psychological healing.

Answer 3

I think that time can heal a lot of wounds, but there are some wounds, for instance, losing a child or a spouse, or other close loved one that even time doesn't completely heal the wound. The pain of the loss may not be as great as it was initially, but it's not completely gone either.

Answer 4

Depends on the person and the wound.

But in general I'd answer the question with a "no." A lot of things that people feel to be life-ending wounds heal surprisingly well, true, particularly when it comes to "every day" issues. Then there's post-traumatic stress disorder patients who never heal. You never can tell.

Answer 5

Unfortunately, no. Not all wounds. Sometimes "healing" is not a good metaphor for dealing with traumatic events in your life. Sometimes you just have to learn to manage the aftermath of trauma. You have to identify what you have the power to do in your life, as opposed to what is going to be a frustrating, totally uphill battle that you may want to think about twice (e.g. changing other people, wishing for something now that is just not too practical at this stage of your life for whatever reason.) Somethings may just never work out the way you would have liked, and will always stay unresolved. And then there are days you just live day to day....

Answer 6

yes it is absouletely true that time can heal all wounds, in fact time and laughter are the only two things that have healed my wounds.

Answer 7

some wouds will heal. but just some. Some wounds are to deep to heal. and will be there forever

Answer 8

There is no reason you won't succeed! Sure, reaching for your dreams can be a little scary,as wounds can be heal or may be irritating. So starting to day, replace " I can.t" with " I will" and go for it.

Answer 9

NO. Time can age you and eventually you may forget your troubles and become used to aches and pains, or learn to live with a divorce, or loss of children, but you do not ever loss the thoughts these events left you with.

Answer 10

It depends on the person - everyone heals differently
