time can heal all wounds.

i overheard mom and dad's conversation last night, as i was leaving the dining room after i ate my dinner alone. and i caught this quote from dad.
"time can heal all wounds."
just let me elaborate on it a little bit.

what does a doctor do when he slits your body open? won't he sew you up and give you medications to kill the pain after the operation? now, what do you do when you get a cut from somewhere? won't you wash it, apply some ointment or something and cover it with a plaster? you certainly don't want your body open in any possible way. obviously, we do something, at least, to make the healing faster.
but yes, i can never argue, time can heal all wounds, whatever kind they may be.
i hate to admit it but we are predestined. and we definitely cannot do something to make time stop nor go back.
what is the purpose of being a prudent human if one would just let time heal the wound? it was written in destiny that someday in time, wounds would be healed, but because  of our prudence, we could definitely do something to make that someday sooner.

as for me. in this place,  i still don't know yet if i could do it. but i would never let the worst to happen, that is, let time heal the wound.
but come to think of it, whatever process of healing you use, a scar would still remain.
and nothing could ever make a scar fade away completely.
not some super ointment we see in a tv shopping channel.
not any type of surgery.

not even time.
