LaVeer, that’s wonderful to hear. It’s amazing how getting heartbroken can actually make you so much stronger in the end. Thank you for sharing the story of your lovely heart, and modeling for all of us a healthy way to relate to our hearts as well. :)

I absolutely love your message on the heart. I agree with you “Wholeheartedly.” I have a wonderful loving heart, this, of course, has caused me to suffer at times when I allowed myself to be vulnerable only to get disappointed or abandoned later. However, this lovely heart of mine keeps on beating and readily opens to love and trust again. I love my heart and how strong she is and I really appreciate your blog.

Actually it also helps if your ex turns out to be deviously crazy, makes you feel like you dodged a bullet!

The heart is a strong organ, but as you point out, a healthy mind makes it stronger.

Aw, Eternal Sunshine (for the Spotless Mind) can’t be the only answer to heartbreak!

Memories can fade over time, if you don’t maintain them. It’s really the story that gets changed, how you view the original pain and its aftermath, that can heal. And the only way to get there, to a sound story of strength and healing, is to let the heart feel everything she needs to feel.

Yes, in a way she’s bound to get hurt and create her own wounds — but yeah, that’s cynical! She has to understand the hurt to learn how to really love boldly.

‘Love heals the wound it makes’ apparently.

Personally I found time was the healer. Or more specifically: memory loss. Over time you lose bits of your memory. Memory loss is the healer.

Cynical Cihan today! But lovely article as always Mel.

Thanks Kelley. I have so enjoyed reading your comments these past weeks.

You know, this was one of my favorites, if not my favorite, to write. It came more naturally, like writing a poem. And it didn’t have to prove anything or strike a pact with bullet points or other logical stuff that articles usually need. Plus, it was healing for me to write out. :)

That was incredibly beautiful Melissa. I’ve only been following you for a couple of weeks now, but this is my favorite piece. I have printed this post off and am looking for a suitable frame. I need to be able to see it everyday.
