If your heart tells you something but your mind tells you something else, which do you believe? Both are just as apt to lie. In fact, they play at deceit all the time. Mostly they balance each other, giving us that crucial reality check. But what happens on the rare occasions when they conspire together?
Neal Shusterman, Bruiser

There’s things that happen in a person’s life that are so scorched in the memory and burned into the heart that there’s no forgetting them.

How do you pick up the threads of an old life?
How do you go on, when in your heart, you begin to understand, there is no going back?
There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep…that have taken hold.
J.R.R. Tolkien

It’s not the changes that
will break your heart;

The saddest part of a broken heart
Isn’t the ending so much as the start
Feist - Let It Die

For forgiveness to work in your life, it has to be genuine. It has to come from the heart. When it does, it is so powerful that bitterness fades away and you are able to see the “gifts” in what has happened.
Winsome Campbell-Green, Ten Life Changing Lessons

One ought to hold
on to one’s heart;
for if one lets it go,
one soon loses control
of the head too.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Have a heart that never hardens,
and a temper that never tires,
and a touch that never hurts.
Charles Dickens

1598 Notes

To love at all is to be vulnerable.

Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken.

If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements.

Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.

To love is to be vulnerable.

C.S. Lewis

A broken heart isn’t so much the loss of the person as it is the loss of your dreams with that person.
Diane Les Becquets, Love, Cajun Style
