jack_babalonRegeneration is never pretty, the mutant healing factor nothing like the comic books or movies. Regeneration means the cuts close but not without leaving their scars. The smashed out teeth grow back wrong, stubborn fangs bursting from the gums of a friendly smile no more. The fractures of broken bones seal but not always in the right places and there's a limp where a rhythm once strutted.
Regeneration doesn't kill the pain, that's not its job, and besides too often it is what numbs the damage that claims us in the end.
Regeneration has only one purpose, one function, one primary objective - to get you back up on your feet with enough strength to stagger to the next chance at getting it right.
Regeneration doesn't negate the blow taken or harden you against the next, but it does teach you the difference between being knocked down and knocked out.
Regeneration is no cure for the phantoms our wounds inflict and yet in struggling to tame them we master instead ourselves.
Back into the light I strive and hope to meet you all again under brighter dispositions soon.
