"Time wounds all heals"

"Time wounds all heals" is a phrase that was stamped on the inside groove of a 45rpm (that's vinyl for you kiddo's) released by Pat Benatar in 1988. The tune is "All Fired Up" from the "Wide awake in Dreamland" album. It reminds me that no matter what has been done to us or by us to other people and whether or not we thnk we have healed time keeps ticking away and it doesn't give a rat's ass as to our thoughts. No matter how much others try to protect us by staying away thinking that if they do then they won't be the cause of our hurt it just doesn't matter because sooner or later Father Time will schedule a nano-second of remembrance and the feelings will come back. Hoepfully we will be in a better position to handle them the second, third or one millionth time around. Maybe we will and maybe we wont. But I do think we are better off risking that hurt by continuing friendships even if there is a risk they may say or do something to cause of pain inadvetantly. Catylysts are reactionary agents not causal.
