'Breaking' News..

Its official - Heartbreak is a bitch..and I realize a lot of you reading this are probably saying 'that definitely isn't a newsflash!' I know..the bitch of it (and also the boon) is that nobody escapes it..i've felt my heart breaking and more recently seen it happen to people I'm very close to..
For those of you who haven't been through it, I pray and hope that its not something you ever have to go through (although my prayers and hope may yield nothing)..for those of you who have - I get it..there have been so many times in the past - recent and far back; that I wish things had turned out differently.. that more had been said and done..and most painfully, dealing with the realization that I probably wasn't good enough..
There have been so many times that I wish everybody's lives came with a remote control for love..that each could pick and choose who they fell head over heels for..and who they didn't..but that would make life too easy and arguably (definitely aruguable!) boring..but I find myself wishing that at the very least I could use a 'Pause' button, if not an On-Off button..
If you, the reader, are looking for some kind of advice I'm afraid your search will be in vain..I got none..if your heart's broken, there's no other way to get through it other than live with the pain and hope that you come out in one piece enough to tell the story..and hopefully learnt something in the process...it helps, though to reach out..especially if you're the type to resort to self-deprecation..I reach out to friends, family, chocolates - anything that makes me feel just a little bit better about the world and myself..
It helps to remember that with the pain comes the realization that it was never that you weren't good enough..it was just that the two of you weren't a good fit and life in it's odd ways has something in store for you..I haven't reached that place yet..when I do, be sure to expect a post about rosy life looks..but for now, suffice it to say heartbreak is a rite of passage and it's something everyone has to go through..if you can't feel better about the pain, take solace in the fact that you definitely aren't alone..
