The Strength In Our Scars

Product Information

You're going to realize it one day-- that happiness was never about your job or your degree or being in a relationship. Happiness was never about following in the footsteps of all of those who came before you; it was never about being like the others. Self-compassion is key: Be gentle with yourself as you navigate your healing process. Treat yourself with kindness, understanding that scars represent battles fought and resilience gained.

No one will ever fully be able to understand the internal battles you had to endure just to heal, just to grow, just to make it here today. Be proud of the way you fought to save yourself. Be proud of the way you survived.” Another famous figure who has spoken openly about her scars is model Winnie Harlow. She once said, “The real difference isn’t my skin. It’s the fact that I don’t find my beauty in the opinions of others.” This quote encourages us to shift our focus away from societal standards and embrace ourselves fully, including our physical marks. One day, you're going to see it-- that happiness was always about the discovery, the hope, the listening to your heart and following it wherever it chose to go. Happiness was always about being kinder to yourself; it was always about embracing the person you were becoming. Trust that some of the best days of your life haven’t even happened yet. There are going to be parties that leave you dancing until 6am, spontaneous adventures that teach you more than you ever learned in a classroom. There are going to be nights that will stay burned beneath your eyelids, memories that dance underneath your skin. Life is going to exceed your expectations, it is going to astonish you with its timing. Because at the end of the day, the right people fight for you. The right people show up. The right people care, not only when life is convenient, but when it is difficult and messy and it aches all over.”Practice self-care: Engage in activities that promote self-love and well-being – exercise regularly, eat nourishing foods, get enough restful sleep, engage in hobbies that bring joy, practice mindfulness or meditation. Everyday people also share profound insights about their scars. One person stated, “My scar reminds me daily that I am stronger than whatever tried to break me.” This simple yet empowering quote resonates with many individuals who have faced adversity but refuse to let it define them. The truth is, our scars hold immense power. When we share our stories of triumph over adversity, we show others that they too can conquer their own challenges. By being open about our struggles and how we’ve grown from them, we give hope to those who may be facing similar hardships. The moment you truly start to believe that you are deserving of happiness, of love, of something bigger than what you have been settling for, your heart weeps a little—as if it is the first time in years it has been able to lay down its arms; as if it is the first time in years it has been able to rest.”

The RRP is the suggested or Recommended Retail Price of a product, set by the publisher or manufacturer. One such quote comes from renowned actress Angelina Jolie, who said, “I think scars are like battle wounds—beautiful in a way. They show what you’ve been through and how strong you are for coming out on the other side.” Her words highlight the beauty in our imperfections and remind us that our scars tell a story of survival. It took me a long time to realize that not everything in life is meant to be a beautiful story. Not every per-son we feel something deep and moving with is meant to make a home within us, is meant to be a forever. Sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how to love; and sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how not to love. How not to settle, how not to shrink ourselves ever again. Yes, sometimes people leave—but that’s okay, because their lessons always stay, and that is what matters. That is what remains.” maybe this is inspiring and profound if you A. are NOT severely mentally ill & have never attended therapy and B. a person who knows absolutely nothing about poetry (i.e. enjambment, line, form, structure, etc.)…Side note: I would like to point out that this is not poetry, but prose. It reads a bit like a philosophical self-help book. If the world does not understand the way you burn, do not hide yourself away. Instead, set it on fire. Show them what you can do with all of that hope inside of you.” creo que lo encontré en el momento adecuado de mi vida. porque me siento perdida y sola y a veces es lindo leer sobre alguien que le paso lo mismo pero que te ayuda a mejorar. You are the only person who gets to decide if you are happy or not don’t put your happiness into the hands of other people. Do not make it contingent on their acceptance of you or their feelings for you. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if someone dislikes you or if someone doesn’t want to be with you. All that matters is that you are happy with the person you are becoming. All that matters is that you like yourself, that you are proud of what you are putting out into the world. You are in charge of your joy, of your worth. You get to be your own validation. Please don’t ever forget that.

Our scars are not just physical reminders of past wounds; they hold immense emotional significance as well. Each scar tells a story, representing moments of pain, resilience, and growth. It is in embracing these scars that we can find true strength and empowerment.aparte de eso tengo que decir que todo lo que escribió me gusto, todo me hacia decir si REINA SI, porque es como me siento aunque quizás no estuviéramos hablando de los mismos asuntos. this is me empezando los 22 leyendo un excelente poemario sobre como mejorar en mi vida para ser mas feliz.

You are not falling behind—you are falling into yourself. So please, keep going. Everything that is meant to be yours will be yours. It will come. It will come.” Scars. We all have them, whether they be physical or emotional. They tell stories of battles fought, lessons learned, and resilience tested. In a world that often prizes perfection and strives for flawlessness, it’s time we shift our perspective and recognize the strength in our scars. Our scars tell stories, both physical and emotional. They are reminders of our strength, resilience, and the journey we have traveled. Scars are not something to be hidden or ashamed of; they should be celebrated as a testament to our growth and survival. I have a lot of mixed feelings about this poem collection. It wasn't even poems, but prose with some poems inserted in-between. I can't say that I hated that, but it felt like sometimes you don't have place for your own thoughts, because the whole book was just a few poems and a LOT of explanatory prose after that. Plus the amount of repetitions was just too much. Reading this book like getting a hug from a friend. Have you ever felt like you didn’t deserve the good things in your life? This entire book will remind you that you’re worthy of all the love and care that you give to other people. We cannot love others if we don’t love ourselves first.Some mornings you will wake up and your scars will ache, and some mornings you will wake up and you will fumble with all of the hope dripping from your fingertips. This is your growing, your healing, the balancing of the scales within your bones. You will be high and you will be low, but you will never be empty. You will never be empty.” Scars are not just physical reminders of our past, but also powerful symbols of resilience and strength. Many celebrities and everyday people have shared their stories about embracing their scars, inspiring others to do the same. These quotes serve as a reminder that our scars can be sources of empowerment.
