I still have scars on my face from a car accident 45 years ago. I figure I don’t have to look at them, so I’m not going to worry about them. Scars are just reminders that things could be a lot worse!
Some scars fade, some don’t. Don’t worry, though...the scars don’t define you. :o])
I don’t have to see mine when I look in the mirror. Unless I twist around to see them. I’m lucky that way.
Besides, the way I figure it, there are worse ways to be defined than by 9” scars on my butt. LOL! I laughed when I first saw them after the surgery, all stapled up.
