I've never really understood, and never will understand, why after a break-up, people say that the other person broke your heart. It isn't even possible!!!
Firstly, a heart cannot just be broken like that, and if were, you would be dead already.
Secondly, all I can understand that they say it because they're hurt, badly hurt, and that it affects them a lot.
I used to think that why at all would you give someone so much power over you to be able to hurt you that badly, that you should always have your guards up, and be aware that the person can leave at any moment.
But now, I've got the answer, if you love someone, you have to let go and let love come into your heart, you have to bring your guards down in order to truly and fully experience it. And if you love someone (not necessarily romantic love), you are bound to put yourself in a vulnerable place and you'll most probably end up getting hurt. Its inevitable.
The truth is love is pain, though it is a beautiful feeling, it brings a lot of pain and fear along with it.
But its all worth it.
Plus, you can't live your life in fear of losing someone or getting hurt. Right?
And now I'd like to quote something from the movie 'letters to Juliet':
'What' and 'if' are 2 words that don't have much meaning separately, but when they are placed next to each other, they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life.
An even if you do end up getting hurt, remember this:
Time heals even the wounds of the heart.
( I just made that one up)
