Broken hearts.

Whenever I read a sappy book these days, I feel my heart cracking into pieces. It must mean that my heart is breaking but that is a minor thing compared to what other things eventually do to broken hearts. It might sound cliché but it hurts me when I hear when a person says that his/her heart is breaking due to a specific reason.

Things eventually pass, that's what I have been told. At times I see things remaining constant and not changing. Either the time goes very slowly or it goes very fast in front of my face. I guess it is just me who keeps on relating with every cloud on the sky that flutters and then disappears like I did not get attached to it for the past five minutes and it happens that I don't know what to do with my life for a couple of hours later on.

Now when a person tells me that somebody left him/her for no reason and it breaks his/her heart, it affects me why people do such a thing. Don't they know that others are sensitive? Getting used to a person is very bad at times as you depend on his every word/action to survive or even breathe. It is like you cannot live without that being and your day will not go well if you do not talk to him/her. I have to learnt about that the hard way that you should not over prioritize people for they do not simply care most of the time.

Not having things go our way also affect our delicate hearts, like why am I not having this amazing phone? Why am I not getting that university offer? Why am I not getting that spontaneous job? Why am I not having pizza everyday? Why is my lawn always so dirty? Why am I not having a large group of friends? So many questions that eat us up and we end up doubting ourselves or even pitying our situations when there are so many other wonderful things to look upon. It is in our nature to want things that we do not have.

Heartaches from break ups and divorces are things that break our hearts and people alternately get over it because you end up healing yourself as there is always that positivity in life that push you to go ahead. One cannot simply stay in one state of mind forever and keep on blaming oneself for something that was bound to happen. If the heart is broken, it will be healed, provided you work on it. Else living must be so heavy and feeling that weight is a hard job, trust me on that.

To be broken is what we are born for. To be beautiful like a diamond, somebody has to break pieces from you so that you can be shaped well and eventually get to that state of beauty where everybody marvels over you. Do not be ashamed if you have a broken heart. Broken hearts are the prettiest ones ever and will always shine whether it is bright or dark.
