Why we should celebrate heartbreak...

Sometimes songs spring to mind that ask a question, sometimes a question inspires a song. In this case, this afternoon during my 'break'..it was the song that got me thinking

I know people who have never experienced heartbreak-ever! They're still with the same partner, or in some cases, never had a partner for any length of time to develop that emotional bond.
But, before you think how lucky they must be, I would urge you to think again.

To experience heartbreak you must have experienced love. You must know what it's like to truly care for someone beyond your wildest dreams and know how it feels to be the embodiment of love manifested. That spring in your step, that brooding joy.. that feeling of contentment.. remember that?

Well...that tearing wrenching pain in your gut (that signals heartbreak and not food poisoning) varies dependant on your ability to feel.
So.. the more you hurt, the more you feel..

Celebrate. You, now have what it takes to truly love someone. Yes.. you are now in a higher place!!a bit battered- but not bust!
Fret not, there are remedies...

So...should you survive this painfull affliction ( and you will, with good friends, and a tearfilled moment or five)... treat yourself to something nice:)
You deserve it!!

Hope you enjoy this track... how cool is Jimmy?:)

  1. Great tune............. and Dawna you have summed this up right 'To experience heartbreak you must have experienced love'. The hardest part or on a more positive note somehow you will survive the pain and that will be your nourishment to learning how to LOVE again.....at least we take comfort in knowing that family and good friends will always be there to help mop up the tears..

  2. I agree with ChilledLeo..that is profound but so true. I have experienced heartbreak and if I had to do it over again, I'm not sure I'd go there this time around. The life that I am living now is worth the hard times though.

  3. As they say better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all
