[LATE] #AugustWritingChallenge - Pain - Day 21

I can assure you time does not heal all wounds. In fact, time doesn't even heal some wounds. What time does do, however, is make you forget temporarily but as soon as something reminds you that pain just comes bubbling back up to the surface.

When it comes to pain, both physical and emotional, I think humanity is working in the wrong direction. Doctors are always trying to figure out how to relieve you of pain you are already in as opposed to keeping you from pain in the first place. There are so many books about how to get over being hurt and how to forgive. I see very few on how to apologize or how to avoid hurting and offending others. I wonder how much better the world would be if we all just tried to hurt each other less?
