Hugging Time Helps Heal Wounds To Keep Walking

Hugging time helps heal wounds to keep walking

If we were able to let time enter our lives when he asks for it. If we were brave and let it accompany us in the duels, in the losses, in the good and also when we feel alone … Time is a traveling companion and not an enemy as we sometimes imagine. Because when we are lost, it saves us, when we give it space and days it does its job.

When we lose travel companions, our dreams are interrupted or we find ourselves alone on the road, we are drowned out by our rush, we walk faster and we turn a deaf ear to our emotions. Now, if we stop, listen and let ourselves act at the same time, we will know everything we need to alleviate our suffering and pain.

The island of feelings

“Once upon a time, there was a very beautiful island with an indescribable nature, where all the feelings and values ​​of man lived ; Good Humor, Sadness, Wisdom … as well as all the others, even Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island was about to sink, then they all prepared their boats and left. Only Love was waiting alone, patiently, until the last moment.

When the island was about to sink, Love decided to ask for help. Wealth passed near Love in a very luxurious boat and love said: “Wealth … can you take me with you?” “I can’t because I have a lot of gold and silver inside my boat and there is no room for you, I’m sorry.”

Then Love decided to ask Pride what was happening in a magnificent boat. “Pride I beg you … can you take me with you?” “I can’t take you Love …” – Pride replied – “Everything is perfect here, you could ruin my boat and how would my reputation be?”

Then Love said to Sadness that was approaching: “Sadness I ask you, let me go with you.” “No Love …” -said sadness- “I’m so sad that I need to be alone.” Then the Good Humor passed in front of the Love, but he was so happy that he did not feel that they were calling him.

Suddenly a voice said: “Come love, I will take you with me.” Love looked to see who was speaking to him and he saw an old man, he felt so happy and full of joy that he forgot to ask the old man’s name. when he arrived on land, the old man left. Love realized how much it owed him and asked Saber: “Saber, can you tell me who was this that helped me?”

“He is the only one capable of making love survive when the pain of loss makes him believe that it is impossible to continue. He is the only one capable of giving love a new chance when it seems to be dying out. The one that saved you, Love, is time, because only time is capable of understanding how important Love is in life ”.

This story by Jorge Bucay tells us the importance of time. When we believe that everything is lost, when we have lost the compass and the road no longer makes sense, when we strive for everything to pass and we ignore what we really want, the time comes and saves us, it tells us in ear that everything happens and when we learn to let go of the load and hug him is when wounds heal.

The solution takes time

Rushing was never good allies, problems take time, as does heartbreak, because all the energy that we discharged into the other needs to find a new destination. Broken dreams also require time because the brain needs to develop new plans or new solutions and of course, losses require time because we must learn to place our love elsewhere …

Time is in charge of placing each thought, each emotion and each person in their place. He teaches us that nothing is final, that everything passes, both good and bad and that slowly everything looks better. It helps us mature and see things from another perspective to learn and grow.

That is the solution: give time. But not a passive time marked by the light stroke of the clock hands, but an active one made up of acts and reflection. Where calm reigns to elaborate and reconsider and the good can be extracted but also learned from the bad. A time to let ourselves go but without stopping walking, so that as in the story, it saves us when everything else can no longer help.
