CL Stories – Glass Heart [Chapter 54]

“Have you ever had your heart broken?” No? Then maybe my question should be, “Have you ever broken someone’s heart?” As we course through life we will definitely experience both. We might know it or not but eventually we will break someone’s heart and ours will be broken by someone. How tragic does it get when your heart breaks? How hard or easy can it be to break someone’s heart. Hearts are like Cinderella’s crystal pumps, if it is mishandled it could shatter into pieces that could be unrecognizable to the naked eye. As I’ve said from one blog I made last year, “Heart is the core of human feeling and emotions.” so just think if this gets broken. It’s going to be hard to sustain normal emotions and feelings without a proper core (heart) to hold it together. You’ll be in a situation where one person is just so madly in love with you and yet the feeling isn’t really mutual. Theirs is no easy way to break somebody’s heart but instead of giving the pain bit by bit, give it all in one fatal blow. There are a lot of ways and one is REJECTION, yes it already fucking hurts that your object of affection doesn’t really feel the same way but it’s another thing to let you know that he or she is totally not interested. There could be various reasons why they might not be interested. If they have told you the reasons then that’s good, if not then it’s none of your business. If you are the one giving the rejection make sure to be subtle and find ways to deliver it in a manner that won’t hurt as much if you we’re to say it bluntly. You’re about to shatter a heart that’s already broken so be considerate yet firm and consistent in your decisions. Never do things that give false hope for it doesn’t ease the pain but rather just prolongs it. If you are being rejected, know that each and every person has a right to do so, given the reasons they have. As long as you have done what you can and what you could then there’s nothing to regret. You can’t force someone to feel the same way you do. “You plant love and you let it grow, if it never grew in their hearts, be glad that it grew in yours.” But whatever situation we may be in, we must all realize that hearts are fragile and that everyone who takes this path will have to endure the pain it may bring and risk their heart getting broken. It may or may not grant us eternal happiness and joy, no one can assure that we will achieve it, but nevertheless it will always be worth it because we will be a step closer to another meaningful realization.

“Happiness is not something you pursue within the life you live but rather something you pursue within yourself and the character you become towards achieving it.”
