Person help: Four scars - Help.com

hah, i’ve got a scar on my finger from it almost being chopped off. I think it looks kool ;P

Where’d u get the scars?

Perfectly imperfect.

We all do things we wish we could take back. Least u got the scars to remind u :). I’ve got the same.

I also have a scar on my left hand. True these scars remind us of a significant point in our lives. To some even a turning point. Good post my bro.

U shouldn’t feel silly. The scars represent a personal truth for you, just like ours do for us. I guess exactly where they came from doesn’t matter as much as what it means to you.

I know of a Man who died who had 5 scars. The 5th one was to make sure He was dead.

Point is those scars must mean something to Him because He chose to keep them into the next place. So in a way those scars show what kind of a Person He is.

Jesus?

You know part of His identity, like you are saying….You go

Sora, you got it!

I did not mean to say You go…lol
I accidentally hit ret. when typing to Sora

*bows*

No lol, I just went to Catholic school for 13 years so… But I don’t think I should speak b/c of my views on it, but you raise an interesting point Matt. I didn’t consider that.

anyway, interesting…thanks for sharing

Yea, it like popped into my mind right when I saw the post…

I thought of four scars left by 3 nails

Then I remembered that Roman Centurion thrust his spear in Him to make sure He was dead and that was 5

Then just Snar is saying Jesus kept His scars….pretty cool. I guess they are like battle scars.

Reminding everyone who sees them of the price He paid for us…and that defines Him to others…anyway think I talked too muc

much

I agree that scars tell a story. so do wrinkles, stretch marks, pits, and discolorations. they’re all accumulated through living. the japanese have a term that somewhat covers it called wabi sabi.

as for one ever truly knowing who they are, my own experience is that the older we get, the more we realize how nothing is forever, not even who we are. times change, people change, and it would take a fully functioning crystal ball to know who one will be five years from now or even next month.

**I think the whole point about Jesus and the scars was to prove he died and was resurrected. thomas had to see and touch them in order to believe that it was really jesus.

cool….

I hope they never fade either. (you’re an amazing writer…become an author and share your wisdom with the world!)

I dont think you’re selfish at all…lots of people can relate to you, I’m sure they ae comforted by you(one thing I learned from this site: you’re never alone) You have an amazing talent Snar! Do what you want with it.

I have a question…are you not being selfish for keeping your wonderful words from the rest of the world? that’s the only way i can see it is selfish

Wow wow wow , that post is wonderful . it is definatly one of the most beautiful posts that i read here .

Yes, your post is truly nice! I know a young girl who has said just about the same. She is actually good with words, too. She was a cutter for some years, and she does not want to take her scars away. “They are a part of me, and how I became what I am”, she says.

But those scars are still symbols. Most people have other scars too, inner scars which are not visible. We are products of all our experiences and realizations, some of which have left scars.

Yes, some scars are not visible. I have them anyway, as most people do, and they remind me from time to time. I can learn from them.
But yet some of them I could do without, because they represent things I don’t even WANT to learn. For instance, if I am badly treated by somebody, that scar could tell me to not trust others. But I believe in trust, so I will be vulnerable to further scars in that respect.

That’s deep, I agree with you and think you truely know yourself and the world around you.
