You're not allowed to give up on love.
You're not.
It is the only thing we have. So, pick yourself up off the floor, dust off your shoulders and go out there and love no matter how many times you get thrown in the trenches. Each time that happens, you let yourself love more, love stronger, love more vulnerably and passionately.
We have one life, should we spend it hiding- scared and afraid of hurt?
This week, I had quite a few experiences with people who refuse to love again because it hurts. I listen and I empathize- I wanna run away at times.....I. Get. It.
But, you are not allowed to give up on love.
Tomorrow is a new day. Your love is a new love. You owe your day and your love a fresh start.
Give yourself over and over and over until there is nothing left. At the end of the road, you won't regret the lives you impacted by being open to love. You won't regret those beautiful souls you let love you.
Just, do me a favor, do yourself a favor, don't give up, don't hold back. Love. Love. Love.
And when there is nothing left and when love has you in tears and heartache, love more and love harder. If there was one answer, it is love.
