It's hard to give your heart to people who really say they want it, but don't understand you enough to know how to handle it or take care of it. You wanna give them credit fro trying, but it's hard doing even that because you're still healing from something really stupid or ignorant they did. Having someone's heart, or a piece of it, is a big responsibility, and I don't think most people understand that. They just want the fun part, where they get loved and feel good. But who's actually willing to put in the effort of taking care of the heart of someone else? Of noticing what makes them happy, in the deeper ways, and what hurts them? Or even just being willing to put their own heart aside long enough to SEE the other person's heart?
God, help me to love others as they need to be loved, and either harden my heart to be able to endure the pain, or bring quick healing to my own heart...
