Are You Heartbroken?

There are times in life you get to a certain stage and think you are done with some feelings/emotions. This is because you no longer feel anything worthy of pursuing under the spell of emotions/feelings. I’ve often wondered why some things happen at the most inopportune moments but when I finally encountered it, I knew better than to ask. Your life suddenly comes to a stop and your body becomes immobile as reality slowly begins to sink in your mind. You realize that dreams are made and in a twinkling of an eye, shattered forever. 

This helpless situation is really disheartening especially when it comes from the person you had purportedly laid your life, aspirations and dreams of a better tomorrow on. You begin to have an illusion and the next thing you find yourself looking back with nostalgia. You want to believe that it is a bad dream but reality dawns on you sooner than you imagined. Love suddenly becomes meaningless and obsolete and you begin to doubts its credibility and existence. 

You begin to wonder what happened to your lives, your love, the promises and your dreams. With a tinge of nostalgia, you look back to the old sweet days when you sat down and planned your future and without your knowledge you realize that your eyes are clouded with tears. Tears of lost love, lost time and above all, tears marking the beginning of the end. You want to believe that this is one bad dream, that in a moment you will wake up n resume your once peaceful life and when all this is not forthcoming, you become disillusioned, you lose hope and faith in love and above all you lose trust to the only soul you ever loved and cared for. 

Sometimes late at night you lie awake, wondering what on earth you ever did to deserve this kind of treatment but when you finally set into the world of critical thinking, you finally realize things have a reason as to why they happen and that nothing happens by chance. You begin to appreciate the fact that you are not the only heartbroken soul. That those who are happy today were once heartbroken and that the future is promising to only those who know how to practice patience and perseverance. 

With time you begin to appreciate the value of life and more so, your role in making it worthwhile. The walk of life is punctuated by many pitfalls, at one time you are the happiest of all and in another moment you are the most miserable wretch on earth. This understanding is a vital weapon in overcoming obstacles in the treacherous and challenging world of love. One must be ready to cope up with the many problems that arise in life especially those presented to us by those people we cherish so much.

 In the event of a heartbreak which may ensue as a result of deceit n infidelity, it is imperative that we learn to be strong and overcome obstacles that tend to threaten our own existence. For since time immemorial man has been at conflict with his conscience. The vigor and zeal with which we are able to counter situations either makes or breaks us. Let’s keep in mind that heartbreak is not the end of life no matter how hurting it might be, but a stepping stone towards the path that eventually leads to happiness! After all, don't we learn from our mistakes?
