I have acquired a new scar, it is quite a confronting one and a challenge to me wearing it. It has caused me to reflect on scars and what they mean.

Some scars we may feel embarrassed about, or we may feel disfigured because of them and yet scars are a part of our story, of the journey we have been on and the challenges we have faced; the things we have overcome.

Scars are a sign of healing.

Gum trees wear their scars so well. Their beauty is only enhanced by the damaged caused by a fire, the fallen branch, the wind twisted trunk; they wear their stories so beautifully and boldly.

They teach me there is beauty and strength shown in our scars.
