Destination For A Broken Heart?

Where do broken hearts go? That is a funny question but there are some elements of truth in it. Anyone who asks such a question as this must have been used to heartbreak. The person had it full and wondered where broken hearts converge and where they console each other before they finally depart.

Being heartbroken is part of life. It can come from a lover, a friend or a family member. We get hurt by people we love the most. Only those who mean something to us can hurt us that deeply. Being hurt is a sign of a sane heart; a heart full of expectations. Without expectations, you can’t get hurt but with expectations come disappointments and with love comes episodes of hurt. There is no one on earth that can ever say he or she has never been heart broken...one way or another.

Broken hearts don’t converge anywhere. Broken hearts goes nowhere. Your broken heart stays with you and then you nurse it, heal and then love again. The only remedy for heartbreak is to love again. Love is a great driving force, capable of making you do what you never thought you could do. True love has no class, age or race barrier.

The people who get hurt the most are the ones that put their heart on the line the most. Why would I get hurt when I actually haven’t sacrificed much? Why would I get hurt over what someone else thinks when I am indifferent to the person or don't know the person that well?

Have you invested so much in a business and there was a big issue along the line? How did you feel, scared, uncertain and fearful? If it eventually crashed there is no denying the fact that you will be broken beyond words, as you would wish there are some decisions you can take back. The same happens in relationship. You can’t invest so much of your heart, body, resources and time and you won’t feel broken when it goes south. You have a stake in it and those investments are something you will never get back, so the hurt is understandable.

There is no way you can avoid being hurt. Your partner in business dealing might hurt you, your close friend will hurt you, and your close-door neighbour will hurt you while your close partner at work won’t be left out...even your boss can hurt you. Hurt can fly from different angles in varying degrees.

The truth is they might hurt you intentionally or not so intentional. Whichever way it is, you need to learn to look past the hurt and know it is part of life. I know sometimes it is hard to look past it, especially when the hurt runs so deep and when it is unexpected. It seems to run deeper than what was done because of the quality of the person who hurt us.

Never give anyone too much power to control how you feel. Make provision for those hurts by forgiving them in advance, for the sake of your sanity. You can’t avoid being hurt. If you are too careful, there are others who will carelessly hurt you. Grow a thick skin sometimes and learn to move on.

A lot of people stopped loving because they were hurt. They retreated into a corner and lose the whole essence of their being. Never become those who hurt you. A lot of people go on a rebound and start going on hurting spree because they felt aggrieved by someone’s action. I heard of a man who was seriously duped in business dealing and he got an opportunity to dupe someone else and he did. Hurt is part of life and we need to learn to move on as quickly as possible.

When someone breaks your heart, you need to learn how to go back to being you. You need to build yourself up mentally. I am not saying it is bad to feel hurt, no, it is never a crime. You are hurt because you can feel, so that is a positive. My advice would be, never put your life on hold because someone hurt you. Don’t give such a person that kind of power. You need to learn that hurt is part of life and don't allow it determine how you turn out.

I have been hurt many times. I have hurt others too, whether intentionally or not, but the truth is, I learn to move on as fast as I can, and also make amends in the long run to those I have hurt. Don't take everything to heart. When people hurt you, it might not even be about you. They might have some internal battles they are contending. Be in control of our emotions.

Thank you for your time.

As the famous song goes Mr. Ola:

"But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry And every time you walk out, the less I love you Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true I'm way too good at goodbyes"

People will get stronger with every heartbreak.

This is a beautiful lyrics. Don Williams sang something similar and it goes like this: "Everytime you hurt me, I get a little stronger and I will soon be strong enough to say goodbye."

You are absolutely right.

We can't remain the same after that experience, no doubt. We can only take the positives from the experience.

Well, as you said being borken heart is part of life indeed it is, but why our heart was broken? Because of our own expectations, because of our own care for others, becaus of our own love for the people who even don't deserve, and as a human it's our nature to expect things from our loved and closest ones, but one thing is for sure if someone has broken your heart you should learn from that heart break and try to build yourself strong emotionally, mentally as well as physically so that next time if someone try to hurt you, you can put them in their limits.

Put them in their limits I absolutely love that and I enjoyed this contribution. They obviously don't care about us to have hurt us so deep and move away with it...so we have to love ourselves too and move on for as long as it takes to heal.

As long as we are human beings, we will always hurt someone and be hurt too. We can't escape it. Also, I think we should be able to control our emotions. Some people don't know how to control their emotions and they gave other people the power to control their emotions. For example, some people don't feel good if they have not received a call from their man. They should be able to control it so that it won't affect them mentally

I love that practical example. In fact, some people feel bad when they haven't received compliment on how they look... We should be able to handle expectations and deal with it accordingly. We must know ourselves.

I've been hurt many times that makes me stronger, lol. It's time to love yourself also and don't let people hurt you. Though we can hurt others not intentionally but we must learned with our mistakes.

We learn by mistakes, no doubt. We have to love ourselves only then can moving on be easier a bit.

But if others hurt us intentionally, that is something harder to move on

It's hard but not impossible...we still have to move on so we won't keep our lives on hold for someone that has moved on and doesn't care how we feel.

I got my heart broken too before and seriously, once you heal you can love again. As long as you truly heal. Not a fake one and eill use other just to show to others that they already moved on.

Most people use others as body shields and say they have healed when all they did was rebound. We need to fully heal so we can try again.

Hmmm, we nurse the broken heart all by ourselves, that's unfair. The person that breaks should at least help but that's life. I have been heartbroken many times cos I expected so much from the person that did.

Sadly, those who hurt us move on as though they hadn't don't any wrong and it's unfair. That's why we need to handle our emotions better.

Don't take everything personally because they might be contending to personal battles we don't know. Plus what defiles a man is what comes out of him, process what you hear and listen to God's truth about you and not from toxic comments.

Never become those who hurt you.

It's easier for us to say that we have to move on and stuff. But in reality, when you really love someone, you cannot think any of it since all you want to is to be with that person.

Eventually, you will have to move on albeit painfully because there is no point hanging around when the other person has moved on. It won't be easy at all.

There's a kind of growth that comes with healing hurts that's why I never run away from it. Any hurt is a challenge to overcome and an opportunity to grow.

I love your disposition to this. It is indeed an opportunity for growth... It makes our heart tougher and stronger to handle more things.
