Does Time Heal Pain? Jaya Kishori Shares Her Honest Thoughts

We often hear people say, "Time heals everything." But is it really so? Motivational speaker Jaya Kishori, aka Jaya Sharma, has a different perspective. She recently spoke about how time does not heal the pain at all but teaches us to live with it in a more positive manner.

Time Doesn't Heal, It Teaches

Jaya Kishori says she doesn't believe time heals. Rather, it teaches you how to live with the pain. The pain or sadness you experienced is still present. It's just that you don't experience it every moment since you get busy in life. The pain is not erased; it's just pushed aside.

Pain Doesn't Disappear, We Get Used to It

She gives an example. If a close friend or family member dies, you never really stop missing them. You may not think of them every day due to life moving forward. However, if you sit still and think of them, that pain could return just as strong. You still experience that loss, and it is still painful.

Life Keeps You Moving

Jaya explains that as time passes, we get more things to do. We keep ourselves busy, and that keeps the pain manageable. But that doesn't mean that we are cured. If something or someone was important to you, the pain of their loss is always going to remain.
