The Physical wear and tear of life.
Everyday you do the same thing wake up have a coffee or a tea do your usual routine and then one day you look in the mirror and say where did those wrinkles come from, I’m hairier than usual or oh those bags are bigger than they have ever been.
In a split second you realise those daily battles you fight without thinking has left their mark and all your life fighting for peace has left you worn, tired and not sure which way to turn at times.
Ageing happens that’s life but what others can see if the scars life leaves on your heart and the way it changes how we move through life and the way we interact with people. The decisions we make shaped but situations and interactions we find ourselves involved in.
Situations and ordeals of life change you and I don’t think enough people talk about it enough. People are quick to throw out the term you’ve changed but no one thinks why? Just as if people choose to change on a whim. Maybe it’s because they have had enough of poor treatment or it’s a trauma response to something horrific.
Whatever it is we need to be more sympathetic and aware of it as life leaves it mark one way or the other on us.
