Invincible

          "Don't be afraid to be broken. Because then you'll know you were whole before, and you'll be relieved to find how well you recover afterwards. The heart is invincible."
            - Marie

          I've been forgetting, recently, to be daring.
          The only philosophy I actually manage to live by (and I know I have a lot of them) is that things are worth it. Some things are worth any pain or inconvenience. Some things are worth heartache.
          I've forgotten to be fearless lately. I've been going around being nervous, being guarded and prudent, being careful. I haven't cut lines and just trusted people. I've held back. I haven't gotten my heart broken.
          I've always believed that you do things with your heart in your hands. Because, inevitably, shit happens and you get hurt, no matter how well you've guarded yourself - so why live with arms crossed and fists closed? I'd rather give it all, live generously, feel. Because, in the end, it's worth it.
          It's good to remember that.
