Heartbreak: the pure essence of pain. Heartbreak doesn't just teach you a lesson but it changes you. It hits you in your core and extends out till your whole body hurts. It's that step outside on a cold morning that takes your breath away when it hits you. Things that used to make sense don't, meanings go out the window. Colors change, touch feels different, taste becomes bland. One thing I've learned is that you can't make sense of heartbreak and you'll drive yourself crazy trying. Don't look for the why because no matter what that chapter ended. People come into our lives for a reason or for a season. We don't have the right to hang on because they were never ours to begin with. We burn our hands holding onto a rope that has nothing on the other end, they let go already.
I've been there more times than I want to admit. I've been jealous of the breeze that touches them or the stranger that gets that smile as they pass them by. But what I have to remember, what you have to remember is that YOUR LUNGS STILL WORK AND YOUR HEART STILL HAS THE ABILITY TO NOT ONLY LOVE BUT TO BE LOVED. Heartbreak doesn't determine your worth. Do yourself a favor and get the word rejection out of your vocabulary. You are wanted by someone who loves you UNCONDITIONALLY AND ENDLESSLY.
Heartbreak although it doesn't feel like it but it is only a moment in time that will end. THIS TOO SHALL PASS. Allow yourself to grieve and feel the pain then get up. JUST KEEP STANDING. Whatever you do just stand. I am more than my bruised heart, I am stronger than this moment. Now take a deep breath with me, put your hand over your beating heart and STAND.
