This is why people are so amazing.

So that narly track burn on my leg? Ya it hurt A LOT today, the enitre left side of my leg looks like someone took a blow torch to it. And all day all I kept hearing was “Oh my gosh Allie what happened to you!?” Every hour, every period. If you had any kind of interaction with me today i am sorry because I was just straight up mean. It was driving me crazy having everyone ask me what had happened. Finally the pain became unbearable and ONE more person just had to ask me what happened and as I walked into the last class of the day I burst into tears. The girl who sits in front of me is one of my good friends and shes practically the new age einstein, she told me it will feel better and gave me hug. And as I was sitting there waiting for the pain to ease she looked at my leg then back at me and goes, “You know Allie, this is going to sound crazy but, I think it’s actually kind of pretty. Not in an appearance kind of way but in a way that it is so real. It’s vulnerable and open thats what makes it beautiful. Its just so human.” She looked at me waiting for some sort of reaction. I replied with “You know what Brit, you are so right, it is real and vulnerable and someimes that is something beautiful.” Your wounds are what make you vulnerable and can inflict pain on you, but sometimes you have to be a bit vulnerable to heal.
