What if heartbreak was your best healer?
What if you took a little bit of time to jump into that question? What if, rather than heartbreak being the thing that annihilated you, it actually helped create you?
These are tricky questions to ask yourself. But, they really are fantastically rewarding. Many have had their hearts damaged in some way and honestly there is no worse feeling that you can go through. You are feeling absolutely awful for what appears to be forever and the feelings of loss never really seem to go away. If we keep playing on the great field of life, we will suffer the inescapable fact that our hearts will break occasionally.
But what if, when heartbreak comes to us, we allow it to show us where we actually must do deep interpersonal work? How do we take the discomfort of loss and be in a position to create something gorgeous with it?
I'm not saying that we should attempt to ascend above our agony, but rather as an alternative attempt to take our own agony and birth something positive and lovely out of it. It's a challenge not for the faint of heart, and yet simultaneously one that might make an incredible difference when we are faced with deep grief.
So the next time your heart breaks, see if you can take all of that discomfort deep within and change it into something else. Try writing, painting, drawing, or anything else that feels right to you. Express what is inside you instead of letting it eat you day to day. There's something beautiful about going through a time of great change and pain. Yes, it really does hurt, but maybe it is about your heart breaking open instead of breaking to pieces?
Just give it a try. You never know what may happen.
