A Heart Broken Open



A heart broken open is not a shattered heart. It is a heart unafraid to shed tears, unafraid to be vulnerable, unafraid to weep, unafraid to name its own demons and to refuse to project them onto others. A heart broken open is a heart full of receptivity to the healing love of stranger, of animals, of prayer, of compassion, and of memory.
 
A heart broken open offers you sanctuary in which you can find God so that you are never alone.
 
A heart broken open links you forever to the family of humanity.
 
A heart broken open is an invitation to become real – to stand before the altar of your soul and pledge that you will no longer waste this precious life on unconsciousness.
 
Paula M. Reeves
