A spring board off my one linerthat scars are souvenirs you never lose … souvenirs are good right? Say right puhleese. Hell not always. Sometimes when we pick something by which to remember the occasion, we pick poorly. We learn nothing and things just suck. Hard. Blows chunks. Whatever colloquialisms you want to use, you need to use. But I am going on the assumption scar based souvenirs are mostly good. We learn from our mistakes. Takes a lump or two to realize but we go on. We continuously improve. Onward through the fog. As always more to come.
Without the ability to recognize mistakes, somehow accept them, then spark a legitimate change, we are doomed to repeat them perpetually.
