—used to say that feelings of sadness, disappointment, etc., gradually go away as time passes I thought I would never be able to love again, but, as they say, time heals all wounds.
Does time really heal everything?
But is it completely true? Yes, and no. Time is certainly an important factor when it comes to healing. Although it may take away some of the pain, sorrow, or other negative emotions associated with an experience, time on its own is not a healer.
Does time heal all pain?
Time is not a healer. The passage of time may take the edge off of acute pain, but it does not heal pain. On the other hand, time can be used well for healing purposes.
