“It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won't be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.” - Bette Midler
When we put our trust in the hands of others we become a hollow, wooden puppet hoping that the next move is the show stopper. While advice from the peanut gallery is a good way of getting different views on a situation it shouldn't be the final decision maker.
If you follow your heart and keep your expectations low, you maybe pleasantly surprised where it takes you. Dead relationships may never get a fresh start, but hopefully as the days go by you can once again be civil with one another and dare I say even friendly. In some cases a little time and distance apart may recharge a once flourishing love.
But, no matter how much time passes not all can be forgotten. The true test is if you can survive the next storm. Even though it's easy to get caught up in the obsession and chase with little regard to past mistakes or future hiccups hopefully you will have learned a lesson or two since then.
Life isn't perfect. It rarely goes according to plan. But, if you roll with the punches you will come out wiser and stronger.
