Yours will heal. It almost sounds like you are despairing that it will, but it will. If you give love and receive love you will get to the point where the hurt goes away. Sometimes there will be reminders and pain will return but it will be temporary, you will survive, you will prosper.

I wish somehow the I could reach out across the miles and fix everything for you, but that is not possible. All I can do is wish you love and peace...and healing.
