What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?

Crush them up and let the wind carry them away, never to be seen again?

Keep them in a little locked box, up in the top of the closet - out of sight out of mind?

Put them in a padded envelope and mail them to the one who broke it to pieces?

Leave them there, on the floor, to rot where they landed the day everything was broken and you couldn't fix it...

Does it even really matter...

Slowly but steadfastly, work around the clock, to put all the pieces, back together again.

@Oster1 I'm not sure how one would even begin.

@LadyBronte Honestly, I knew you were going to ask this. I really did. 🤗🌺

'Putting the pieces, back togeher again', is probably one of the greatest challenges of life.

We have the option of one of two decisions to make, IMO.

Either we totally call it in and give up or we fight hard, to not accept defeat or to be broken.

It has been said that, "it's not what happens to us in life, but rather, how we deal wih it and overcome, in the face of adversity". In other words, how we pick ourselves up and stand again.

This is where we find, our true 'temper of steel and resolve'. This is synonymous with making a sword, for battle. Only through the fire, shaping, moulding and back in the fire repeatedly, will that blade, become hard and able to take a razor sharp edge. This can only be obtained, through tempering.

You ask me where to start. There are two ways. Are you ready, to start?

First is FORGIVENESS!

Yes, forgiveness of others and more importantly, forgiveness of ourselves. Ourselves!

Only then, can we start our journey to heal and move forward, to a better existence.

I have a very strong feeling, that I can help you, become free again. I could literally write, many paragraphs. I have felt your pain. I know what it's like. I assure you. I want absolutely, nothing in return. Nothing!

I just want to see you run towards the life, you always deserved, OK? 😊🤗🙏💐❤️

@Oster1 I am already lost at step one. There is no forgiveness.

@LadyBronte In all respects, this is THE only route to freedom and does not require any interactions of any kind. It's all done internally, within you. This is just a start. There is more. 🤗
