People spend a great deal of time trying not to get hurt.
They build walls. They become sarcastic. They stop saying “I love you” first. They convince themselves that needing people is weakness.
None of those things make you safe.
A bulletproof heart is not one that has never been broken.
It is the one that keeps choosing to love anyway.
Scars do not make us fragile.
They prove we survived the last battle.
