It's what makes us different than other creatures. It's our hope and longing to love and be love risking it all that makes us in His imagine. And you my dear one are amazing. Your soft heart proves it and that why your friends seek in their pain. You are safe, nurturing and what they seek to soothe their broken heart. Ever met a person who is bitter, mistrusting and sarcastic...not the kind of person one runs to when one has a broke heart. I'm proud of you and I KNOW God glows with the same pride over you!

If we encase ourselves and put up the walls to protect us from getting hurt, we don't fully enter into the relationship. No mistake, when it doesn't work out, it hurts like hell. But, when it does work out, it does because we've allowed ourselves to risk being hurt and made ourselves available to someone on relationship. The beautiful, rich, life-giving relationships in our life still have the potential to hurt us at times. Even our relationship with God - not because of Him, but because of us. Anytime we enter into relationship, we risk pain. But, it's worth it when you find those relationships that are worth it.
