BCoF - Healing Powers
Do you think it is possible to heal on our own, or do we always need to reach out for the comfort of other people in order to fully heal?



I think there is a combination of things that promote healing. "No man is an island" and shouldn't try to make him/herself one. An island is isolated, alone. We were never meant to be that alone.

I have a friend, who, six years ago lost her youngest son in a horrific car accident. He was 16. He was riding with friends, and they crashed into water, and he drowned. Unimaginable! *Cry* She has been dealing with survivor's guilt for several years. I could only hold her hand, or offer a hug, and I prayed for her for a long time. Sometimes, it was hard to see her go through this.

But because she was willing to open herself up, and through a lot of talking and prayer and love, she is starting to come out on the other side, and allow herself to live again. I am so happy and proud of her. Time, willingness of friends, and being open all play a part in healing. Granted, my friend will have a scar that will never go away, but she is starting to live again. For her, healing was hard fought and won.
