How to Heal a Wound.

I have spent a weekend a little bit sore because of discomfort that arose in a tooth. Since last Friday night, after I came back from the gym, the left side of my jaw started to swell. I had no pain at all, just the symptom of swelling on one side of my face.

On Saturday and Sunday, I felt more of a throbbing sensation in my tooth than pain. I washed my hands and I could see with my fingers that the tooth is a little loose and it hurts when I touch it with my fingers. So on Monday I rested and did not go to the gym. But still, on Tuesday, I had the same symptoms of swelling and throbbing in the tooth so I went to the dentist.

The doctor checked me. She can't remove the tooth until the swelling in my face goes down. She prescribed me antibiotics and anti-inflammatory. I start taking them today. In four days I have to go back to the office to have the tooth removed. I am very nervous, I am very cowardly in a dentist's office, my heart gallops like a "crazy horse" in my chest just to hear the noise of the devices that dentists use, as well as the smell of anesthesia that comes from the environment, but healing my body, in this case, my face and my mouth is the most important thing for now, I must go to the office as a brave woman, it is the only solution to my physical ailment. I will have an open wound for several days that will force me to rest for a week in the gym. But in the name of God, I will be healed of that wound soon.

How to heal an open wound from a tooth?... with antibiotics, anti-inflammatory and taking that tooth out of my mouth. There is no other way. So I have to be brave and go to the dentist's office next Saturday morning.

But now tell me... How to heal a wound of the soul?

When we are wounded we are broken, we bleed a wound. Most people who have a wound in the soul, are people who carry a heavy load on their back, they have a "backpack full of emotional stones", they carry a weight of bitterness, hatred, unforgiveness, anger, resentment, all those negative emotions are directed towards another person and the truth is that people are very bad, they have no peace, they live sick.

An emotional wound is the reason why many people commit reprehensible, aberrant acts, because a wound is the reason why many people are today what they never thought they were going to be. They become beings full of grudges.

Everyone has been wounded at some stage of their lives and there are wounds so deep that they will never heal if we do not know how to forgive. When love is greater than hate, which wants to destroy us, we must forgive in order to heal. Forgiveness is "the antibiotic and anti-inflammatory" that our soul needs to heal.

Many people, rather than forgive, prefer to live with that pain all their lives until they are left without the slightest degree of breath. It is as if I, because of my fear of the dentist, prefer to live with my toothache, condemned to have my face swollen forever, exposing my physical health. The same thing happens with an emotional wound. When we are wounded we must solve the problem where we were hurt, so that the wound does not become deeper. We must do the same with the wounds of the soul, heal.

A person who has hurt you is a person who has no love in his or her heart. When a wound takes strength in a person and is filled with bitterness, then life for that person is losing meaning, and if not channeled in time can fall into the world of alcoholism, drugs or live tied to his past in another new relationship of friendship or partnership. He o She is not happy. It is not easy to forgive and only you know what you are feeling, maybe it is very difficult, but I tell you today with much love, it is necessary that you do it because if you cannot forgive suddenly you are in front of a clear evidence that you need to fill your life with the love of God. If you do not have love in your heart, that does not make you any different from the lack of love of the person who failed you.

It may be harder to know that the person who hurt you is not sorry for what they did, but that still does not give you the right to hate, to not forgive, and to not let go of that resentment that sickens the soul. Let it go, and in front of God fix it, because you have to be free and not a slave of something that hurt you and wounded you. When you forgive you are free, the others or whoever has caused you the hurt can go their way, but you become free and the important thing is that you are well. Do not let bitterness, hatred, take the place in your heart that they do not have to take, and be free. Forgive and live the happiness of being free of grudges.

I look forward to reading your commentary on the subject.
