True Love Can Tear Down Those Walls Around Your Heart

Because you are completely giving all of who you are to someone. And trusting them not to destroy your entire being is one of the most vulnerable things we can do.  It is as real as it gets because everything is laid out in the open. No borders, no protection, completely raw.

But how do you respond when all of this is ripped away like a hurricane sweeping through?

Better yet, how do you learn to trust again?

Your heart becomes guarded and it becomes really difficult to feel that anyone is safe to place your whole heart in their hands to love and care for.

When most of what you’ve known is a blind-sided vulnerability, hidden truths, and naive realities the challenge is at an all-time high.

Trusting the wrong one seemed like a breeze, but trusting the right one seems completely nonviable.

Maybe she’s terrified to allow herself to trust again because she’s terrified to lose the only thing that’s gone right.
