Healing a Broken Heart

I am at peace.

The heart is a body organ consisting mostly of muscles but strong and inexplicably center to man's humane existence and experience. We consult our heart when our mind defies and betrays us. Our passion is dictated but what is in our heart. We love with all our heart never with our mind. An organ that marvels me and leaves in me awe of what it can do.

 Just when you think the world is closing in on you, someone extends that loving and true heart with a tender hand that will heal what ails you.

When I read yesterday's post, it sounded like I was giving up. I wasn't! It just sounded like I was very close to it. Giving up has never been an option for me when it comes to my relationship with R.

 And to those out there that are very close to giving up on true love, don't! For it is always worth another try, another day and a another chance.

There is beauty that comes out of resilience and hope. Things and situations may seen dire at times but if your heart has love in it, there is nothing you will not do to save the pieces of the proverbial broken mirror. Things never really do remain the same in each passing minute. So what, if it is not the same! It could be better.

Change is a precursor to better things, if you choose to make it as such. Change happens for a reason. Circumstances like challenges "mirror" yourself. If it is time for change, change will change you. We should be open to improving ourselves and our various relationships with those we truly love. The road to betterment is never paved in silk nor milk and honey thus not easy sailing. I get that now. I am wiser but love even deeper.

To wish to "DELETE" something, obliterates the lesson we all have to learn. And for what it is worth, experiences though very painful at times, remind us that we are human. Forgiveness, we can give and its limitations and pain, we manage. Living is tough but loving makes the tough times irrelevant. Sacrifices are the seeds that we plant hoping they bear fruit. Challenges we face are heavy bricks thrown at us but if we use them as foundation to become a better person and use love as cement that hold these "bricks" together, it makes for a very strong personal relationship foundation.

R, is an exceptional man. I need to say that. He is worth all these and more. I am only beginning to understand the degree of my love for him and how he is truly devoted to me. I am humbled.

Healing a broken heart is never easy but it is possible. I am a living testament to that possibility.

My sad and bad days are behind me. I am at peace.

As the fog lifts from the mountains that I am looking at right now, I know the sun is somewhere back there making its way behind these logubrious-looking clouds. I live for those moments believing that the sun will come out brighter than ever. Hope is one thing that was left inside Pandora's box and I believe that. Loving is believing.  Never giving up hope gives a woman like me the courage and the strength to see challenges in my resolve just to be here for my R.

Love is simple but people complicate it. It is the equation of love. When you find that true love in your life and most things are in their proper places, your heart beats faster, you breath deeper, sleep soundlier, smile brighter, laugh louder but remember one must also strive  harder to keep the love going for it takes some work but with dedication, it can be so beautiful and surprisingly rewarding in all sorts of ways.

Love is never selfish. We hear that all the time but when put to the test and you know who really matters, you will do the right thing and true healing is on its way. It is a wonder how a good open heart can make way for healing.


Tomorrow is another day and it looks even better from where I am sitting.

I am at peace.
