This post really moved me. It is raw, honest and something everyone can relate to. Natasja's last paragraph says it all and leave me questioning myself and the path I have taken in life... the decisions I have made and the trust I have placed in others.
"You open yourself wide to another knowing full well that the other may rip out your HEART ….you go into relationships with the full knowledge of the probability of being hurt. And you go in with your defence’s lowered, and your HEART, which has been put together again and again, fully vulnerable."
Thanks for sharing this and I what I think is most important it ... you cannot go through life without experiencing love. It ignites you... it drives you ... sometimes it will even hurt you .... but it is all worth it in the end.
For anyone who is interested ... this is really a good read ... http://cocreateinspirit.com/2014/11/13/forces-of-though-love/
I choose to LOVE.
How important is love to you?

This is beautiful and definitely made me think. I do believe this goes way beyond a romantic relationship. There is also love between a parent and child, siblings, friends etc. As I get older I am realizing more and more that it is not about the quantity of relationships that we have, but the quality. I rather have five close friends than twenty acquaintances. Once I adopted this mindset, my relationships grew stronger and as a result I grew stronger.
ReplyDeleteLove is indeed definitely worth it!
