Scars and soul

My scars will be here forever, but I won’t let them affect me. 
They are a part of my beauty, my soul. 
Sometimes I resent them.
 But they remind me of the fear I have faced and overcome in the years I have lived. 
At times I wonder what life would be like, if my path had been different… 
But then I know I wouldn’t be who I am today. 
You can love me for my face, for my features, but that is not love at all. 
I’d rather you love me for my soul and the things I have done and will do in this life.
 A heart can be cold, but mine never is.
And I hope it never will be.

    Everything we experience, good or bad, does make us the people we are. You are showing your inner strength. You can win any battle!
