Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.” But I wonder if there’s no breaking then there’s no healing, and if there’s no healing then there’s no learning. And if there’s no learning then there’s no struggle. But the struggle is a part of life. So must all hearts be broken? Albert Camus
About This Quote

I believe that you will be broken before you can fully heal. I believe that the heart will break before it can mend. I also believe that there is no healing without struggle. It is impossible to survive without experiencing the pain of losing the ones you love.

It is impossible to learn about yourself without pain. I do not want to say that all hearts must be broken, but rather that all hearts must be opened. Hearts are opened through loss, and once they are closed, you cannot open them again.

The only choice is to go forward with your heart, or let it stay closed forever.
