Your Heart is at Stake Sister.

when did we think we could actually leave our heart OUT while we live IN relationships? when did we think we could actually.control.every.part.of.it... ? i haven't been a part of any realtionship where my heart has not been in it... with my parents... my sisters... my brother... my best girl friends... my mentor... those i mentor... my co-workers in ministry... my co-works in the secular setting... my boyfriend. i.can't.leave.my.heart.out.

and somewhere down the road i will get hurt, my chest will tighten up, my throat will be unable to speak words... just mumble tears. everyone you Love has the capacity to hurt you. everyone. the one you love most. and the one you are related to by blood. they.will.fail.and.hurt.your.heart. does that mean i choose to stay close to Apathy & live in the "i really don't care" mindset... Apathy invites me close on a cold day... and i want to accept the invitation... who really wants to get hurt & feel the pain of withdrawl or a lack of understanding? only a masochist. the whispered lie, speaks sweetly, telling me that Apathy really is the best way to go. i wont' have to feel anything. it's easier to walk alone. it's better to walk out on family drama. it's easier to not get involved with that student's messy home life.

your heart is at stake. you choose. Love... its many facets of joy & pain. or Apathy... & the cool embrace that fears nothing, cuz it only has self.
