Equilibrium

My wise and thoughtful friend Suchanderina said recently, "If you give away too much of yourself too fast, you will get hurt." I've had my heart broken three times in less than a year, she observed about me. I wasn't counting. If you never give any of yourself, then you can be just as miserable. I guess I have to look for a happy medium somewhere, as usual.

If you give the most to yourself, then your heart can only be broken by yourself... which honestly, must be very difficult to do because I can't think of a way you can break your own heart.

I could not agree more. We need to put ourselves out there and grab life with both hands! Everybody who lives, dies; but not everybody who dies truely lived. :)
