February 21 - Thoughts on scars

Scar tissue is cool because:
  • it keeps your guts from falling out.
  • it's like a badge of courage... aaargh!
  • it prevents infection.
  • it continues to mold to your skin tone and shape for the rest of your life.

Scar tissue is uncool because:

  • it's bumpy and ugly and obvious in funny colors.
  • it doesn't stretch very well.

OK. Cool wins. Any other thoughts on scars out there? What's your best scar story?

I have that impressive scar on my right elbow from 1st grade! (So, I guess you're not supposed to hang upside-down from Dad's weight set??? Who knew...)
