I have discovered that it is not wise to assume that your body is ok when it had a traumatic injury and then stop taking your anti-inflamatories. I have discovered that I do not appreciate blunt force trauma to the knee.
I have also discovered that I hate the pain of blunt force trauma to my heart too. Oh wait. I already knew that. Remember this, when you have a boo boo that is in the process of healing, never ever pick the scab off before it's ready. Never reopen a wound that will debilitate you emotionally. Never look back and wish things were different. Looking back with longing and loneliness in your heart is the worst kind of scab to pick off before it's time. It only reinforces the pain and lengthens the healing process.
You would think I would have learned all this many years ago. And in fact I have learned these lessons, many times before and many years ago. At seven, when I picked that scab covering my whole knee and shinbone off, I should have taken that lesson and run with it the rest of my life. The poor universe, it tries so hard to teach me lessons and I am so thick headed most of the time. What did you call me Kyre? Contentious? Hmmm, yes, stubborn, contentious and now in pain again, silly fool that I am. Silly rabbit, happiness is for kids, not for rabbits!
