I know you have been braved for so long, my dear. But keep going, keep moving forward even when it seems like you are not feeling any progress, even when it feels like the pain seems to linger forever. But believe me one day, one day, you will see how far you have gone. By then, you will notice that wounds become scars and it will not bother you any pain. But for now, indulge with every sting of the fresh wound with the hope that soon it will be healed at its own time.
