Law Of Attraction Tip: What Scars Can Teach Us

Several years ago when the kids were younger, I remember walking out on the back deck find them and their friends comparing scars.  In turn they proudly pointed out each one, telling the story about how it came to be.  I went about my business, half listening and smiling at how the stories got progressively more dramatic (and less factual) as the kids tried to one-up each other.

The truth is that everyone has scars and we all react to them differently.  Some people wear their scars as badges of honor and they love to tell and re-tell the stories about how they came about.  Others don't like their scars, feeling embarrassed or even disfigured by them.  And we all have those deep, emotional scars that we try to hide from everyone - even ourselves.

Of course physical scars seem most apparent because we can see and touch them.  But if we pay attention emotional scars become apparent too, showing up in the way people interact with one another and handle different situations.

Scars tell the story of where we've been and they can give us insight into who we are today.  By understanding our scars and the way they still affect us, we can begin to move forward toward creating the kind of life we want to live.

One thing that helps with this is remembering that the memories surrounding a scar's origin blurs and fades with time until we are left with elements of truth mixed in with a bit of imagination.  Just knowing that we are looking back at an incomplete view of the past can be very freeing as it enables us to be open to possibilities and aspects that we may not have been aware of before. 

And though it doesn't always happen, sometimes it is possible to turn ugly, painful scars into badges of honor.
