Having a heart

Hello again, I have been doing a lot of thinking about the human heart... life's blood... the blood of life. Without this beating, the life force would disappear and into the next realm we go. However I also believe the emotional heart is just as important as the physical heart, and just as critical. So many sad stories of emotionally broken hearts, including my own, beat to a sadness not seen or even felt. Somehow living with this unseen trauma is almost worse than a heart attack. It seems lately I have talked too so many broken hearts, more than usual. With the shrinking world of the internet also comes the growing pain of mistrust and illusions. There is a barrier built around every heart once it has been injured (hurt), and it never falls away as the first innocent heart we were born with. That barrier I believe last the rest of our lives no matter if we find real love again or not. As I get older I have slowed my want to be with someone as I have learned... life is never what we expect it to be....and to be honest I am sure I could not compromise my life away again. I see the pain in the eyes of so many I know... some single ... some not. I find this subject fascinating, no other thing on earth would make us want to try again and be hurt... except for a captivating smile, the sound of a certain laugh... or the twinkle in someones eye. Suddenly the head starts to think well what if... the heart replies... and if not, and the battle of inner turmoil ensues. Be it a good experience or one that almost destroys us, we contemplate the next may be the right one. I know some who just choose to be together simply for the convenience of existence, some just do not want to be alone... they stay without this word of love...or the meaning of it. Unconditional love... really .... do you think so? Or is it more... well what else is there? Some couples seem happy and still have a real smile on their face. So much temptation in this world now, seems many have no morals when it comes to "other peoples partners" I guess I am old school, if you make a commitment and your no longer happy at least tell your partner and leave it on those terms... rather than destroy others emotional hearts. And then there are the users... no one else around so you will do for now kind of people... they are the worst as they play on peoples loneliness. I have seen the aftermath of those people on so many of my friends... not good. More barriers built, more hearts broken. I guess my thoughts on this are the fact at how strong the human heart is... it takes all the physical problems and illnesses, then it survives the emotional breakage which for some end up being the finality in a life of struggle. My people...my family and my friends... please remember... we are in fact human... we do break even if it is not seen physically. Treat others with respect by at least being honest and true. In the end of our time... if we have to face the mirror of truth about our whole life... do not have so many broken hearts floating around blocking the view of the good things you have done. These are just my thoughts, no one in particular has brought on these words... just a thought that started and grew until finally I had to release it into words. Until next time my friends, Pixies
