I definitely agree that time is not a healer. Actually, locking away grief and trauma and not dealing with it over time can make it worse because your hidden pain can lead to addictions and more trauma.

Not all adages are true - time does not heal all wounds.

"We’ve all had something tricky in our past that defines who we are today. The choice is yours: will it build you into a warrior or break you into a worrier?"

I'm always intrigued when just one letter changes the entire meaning of a word, or where two words are so similar except for just one sound.

Warrior - has the word WAR in it, and is about fighting. the triple R is like a revving engine getting you going to take action, do something, move forward, and progress.

Worrier - has the long O sound that muffles itself by the double R. In this case, the triple Rs are more of an impending drumroll, a droning sound of "something is coming for you".

Warrior is about going to get something and is ACTIVE

Worrier is about something coming to get you and PASSIVE

Language matters. do you choose to be a warrior (future forward action) or a worrier (past worries passive)?
