first cut is the deepest

“To be mature means to face, and not evade, every fresh crisis that comes.”  - Fritz Kunkel

hiding seems to be most common form of self-protection. it is also the most selfish, most cowardly and most immature form one can pick.

every fresh wound or every deep cut is going to heal itself, eventually, if only you recognize that it exists. 
pretending like you are not bleeding, not crying, not hurting won't help. nothing will ever resolve itself, and it never means it doesn't pain you at all when ignored.

to face is to fear and is also to love. to love better, one must face all that comes with it. 
there is no good without bad, and no love without suffering.

but to suffer is to sacrifce and what love is deeper than that?
