Scars are badges of honor. When a child breaks a bone, everyone they know will sign the cast. They become the superstar of the class, the survivor. If they fall down and cut themselves, everyone wants to see the scar, they wear it proudly. As we get older, we hide our scars, our wounds become our secrets. We dont want to be seen as weak or pitied, so we tell no one where it hurts. But what children recognize is that scars arent signs of weakness, a scar is a sign of strength and survival. A story to tell. An accomplishment.
