“I feel very small. I don't understand. I have so much courage, fire, energy, for many things, yet I get so hurt, so wounded by small things.”

Feeling too much
can hurt sometimes,
but one day you grow
and realize
that your heart
was never really
broken.
It was just
wide open.
If they were meant to be in your life, nothing could ever make them leave. If they weren’t, nothing in the world could make them stay.
