Thankfully deaded

A recent breakup illuminated the extent to which I can ignore the world around me for one person. I never considered this a fault of mine until now. When everyone that has been w me through some of my life's most charachter-forming experiences tell me to abandon ship...repeatedly...i now know better than to fully lean on my own view of the situation. My heart was broken not once but twice by someone I deemed worthy of its possesion. It brought about a true learning experience of self.  I could never regret what became a year of my life because of the end result but there are many lessons bestowed upon me that I blatantly ignored that have all come full-circle in light of that time. Never give away your heart haphazardly - it only makes reclaiming it harder.
