Cover your wounds

Other day, my 8-year-old son asked me for a bandage. When inquired him he said he has wounded his finger and needs a bandage. Upon a causal look, it was a mere scratch in his finger. I shrugged off saying you don't need a bandage for that and it will self-heal next day. He was adamant saying "I need to cover my wound so that it can heal".

Cover your wounds (issues/problems) and keep calm. Focus on getting it fixed (healed) instead of exposing it to others to see.
