We spend years growing up, learning how to be adults, learning how to fit into whatever it is our parents want, or our teachers preach.
Anyways, that's the purpose. What they all fail to teach us, or prepare us for, is the the dangers of the heart,;how truly fragile it is, how much care it needs. And how to best recover when our worlds are rocked.
Unfortunately, there is probably nothing they can do. Sadly, most people just say,"I told you so," or,"You'll get better, it hurts for a time."
We go on afterwards thinking,"Oh my God, this pain, how can we possible live thorough this?!"
And then, we do. Somehow, we're still alive. And the pain? Does it fade? Not when we lie awake at night, thinking about what we've lost... then it comes back, hard and fast. But, when it does, it's easier to take, because somehow our hearts have healed. Sure, some hearts don't heal back to their original state, but, whether a heart is full of scar tissue, or the tears are barely visible.
The point is... they're whole. They withstand pain beyond anything our physical bodies can know, because, when it comes down to it, the physical bodes can never understand that pain. And, we learn, and grow.
Take care of your hearts... learn to watch our for them, even in the darkest of times; they protect us. And they give us our humanity.
