Made for breaking
The heart is made for breaking, so it can grow larger, though that in itself is a very great thing. To get up and begin again, to learn to trust once more and to be able to forgive others, though it is never easy and may seem impossible. Perhaps it is without grace; that love that is infinite that flows through our hearts out to others if we allow it. It does take a death to self, for the Self, which is in union with God to grow and become manifested in and through our lives. It is not about being hard on oneself, but to have the courage to grow in self-knowledge that leads to empathy and compassion for others. Without that, forgiveness may be impossible, which means we remain chained to those who have hurt or betrayed us…. we give them power they don't want most likely. Just as those who can't forgive us, give us power we are unconscious of and most likely don't want.
