Your Heart Is Not a Weakness

When the heart is pure, love often becomes the battleground.

It’s rarely personal. But the pain can feel like a direct hit.

So many of the hardest seasons come from the ones most deeply loved.

The more open the heart, the more vulnerable it becomes.

And sometimes, that openness invites betrayal, disappointment, or distraction.

Not by chance, but because love was always the doorway.

Pain has a way of slipping in through familiar faces.

Trust is shattered not by strangers, but by the ones who once felt safe.

Suddenly, love feels dangerous.

Connections begin to hurt.

And self-doubt starts to grow.

When the heart is bruised, it’s tempting to shut everything out.

To believe that maybe something’s wrong within.

To wonder if too much care is the problem.

But the truth is,

Love is not the flaw.

Love is the strength.

The heart was never broken beyond repair.

It just needs space to remember what’s real.

Love doesn’t come from others.

It comes from within.

Even with nothing and no one, wholeness remains.

So here’s a gentle reminder:

The heart is not a weakness.

It’s the center of power.

Offer forgiveness where it’s needed,

But protect your peace.

Forgive but don’t open those doors again.

Refuse to carry the weight of anyone else’s projections.

Don’t turn away from love.

Just learn who is truly safe to receive it.

There’s no shame in beginning again.

Love as many times as needed.

Because love isn’t something to earn,

It’s something you are.

With an abundance from source.

No need to harden.

Just discern.

The heart remains strong.

The spirit, whole.

And every breath is a chance to begin again.

I love you.

Keep going.
