"Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."

Oh my God, Mr. Lewis, I believe my heart is broken
But in no way does this change the fact
Of who I am, and who God is
In fact, it solidifies it

believe it or not... I was just praying for you... Not too sure why then... but after this, I think I know.
