No don't worry. The Gimptastic One is not heart broken. This was sparked by something I read.
Love hurts because it is real. This is why it hurts to lose it. I mean if it wasn't really love, then when you lost it, you could just go on as if nothing happened. Why? Because nothing DID happen, emotionally speaking. You may have gone through the motions. But it wasn't love.
The more it hurts when you lose love, the more real that love was to begin with. No Pain, No Gain might be a bit cliche', but it is fitting.
Love isn't about convenience. It's about sacrifice, or the willingness to sacrifice for the one you have the love for. Love doesn't come with an On/Off switch. Love is one of the biggest risks you can take. The pay off is imeasureable. But so is the pain when that love is lost.
But remember, love is never a failure. There is no such thing as a failed love, if it was real to the person giving the love. Because loving someone is such a big risk. The willingness to allow yourself to be put in the position of getting hurt is something that should not be ignored.
Appreciate the love you have while you have it. And give while you can.
