Often in life we will come across people that hurt us, people that abuse the very essence of the trust that we place in them as friends or loved ones. When those people decide to remove themselves from our lives they simply forget we ever existed whilst we are left to pick up the pieces, wonder what went wrong or what we could have done to make things better. Whilst the victim carries that torment forwards the bully simply moves on to their next victim.
The human soul is a very precious emotion. It can be raised so high that we feel like flying yet at the same time can so easily be destroyed in the blink of an eye. It allows us to feel love, be happy, optimistic, hopeful yet it can also fill our hearts with pain and despair.
During the low times in our lives there are days when it feels that there is absolutely nothing that can take the pain away and no matter how comforting our friend’s words are they just don’t seem to mend the gaping hole that has appeared within our hearts. But there is always hope.
During those bad times try and block out all the negative thoughts that your own mind is creating, try and empty yourself of all emotions. As the old Chinese saying goes “In a heart free from all emotions not even a tiger has room to insert its fierce claws”. When you are removed of all emotion those wise words from your friends will seem to make sense and whilst it won’t mend a broken heart it will momentarily lift it into a higher state of consciousness that will make you feel better.
We are always going to have those that make our lives a misery and unfortunately these people will never stop at doing their very best to ruin the heart of someone that they have no care or love for yet through the lies they will make those people believe that. But if you surround yourself with friends and family that you know love you. Well then the tiger really cannot scratch away at your heart.

nicely said. Even through the worst in my life, I held onto hope.
