When It Becomes Hard To Love Again


Tobi Dami

When it becomes hard to love again, remember that your heart is a lot stronger than you think. It can handle the pain of heartbreak, unrequited love, loss and rejection. It can handle anything in the name of love. It knows how to heal itself. It knows how to eventually love like it’s never been broken. Remember that your heart is not damaged. Your heart is learning how to bounce back so it can love wholeheartedly again.

When it becomes hard to love again, remember that love will always be your favorite story. It will always be the part of your story that softens the hardships, that wipes away the tears, that brings you and your story back to life. Remember that love will always be the part of the story you’ll never forget. Remember that a story without love is not worth reading.

When it becomes hard to love again, remember the kind of love you have in your life and the kind of love you give. Think of your best friends and how you can’t live without them. Think of your parents and how you would do anything for them. Think of the people you adore and admire and think of all the wonderful things that you share with the ones you love. Remember the times love healed you. Remember the times love made your life easier and eased your lonely nights.

When it becomes hard to love again, remember the lessons heartbreak taught you, remember the ways it shaped you into a better, stronger and wiser person, remember the times love made you appreciate the things you took for granted and taught you how to care, how to forgive, how to be selfless and how to compromise.

When it becomes hard to love again, remember all the days love swept you off your feet, all the nights it made you smile, all the crazy things it made you do, all the songs it made you sing, all the poems it made you write and all the deep feelings it made you feel. Remember that your best days were the days when love found you.

When it becomes hard to love again, just remember that it won’t always be that hard. That it won’t always be the same story, it won’t always be the same game. Just remember that love is precious and it’s not something that you easily find or something that you get right from the first time. When it becomes hard to love again, the only way to move on is to love harder and keep on loving because nothing good comes out of bitterness and nothing good comes out of indifference.
