There are three things I know about a broken heart. The first is it will heal. The second is it will heal. The third is it will heal.

Written for the weekend Trifextra challenge: This weekend we are asking you to play around with the following quote:
Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind. –Henry James
We want you to follow the same general structure of the above quote. Feel free to change the subject–tell us what’s important about coffee or houseplants or whatever you’d like. Or else change up the modifier–instead of telling us what’s important, tell us what’s sexy or overrated or pernicious. Your last three lines should closely echo James’s, giving us the same answer three times. – See more at: http://www.trifectawritingchallenge.com/#sthash.7JTIHbF7.dpuf
Let me enlighten you then. Four: it sucks. Five: it hurts like hell. Six: It sucks even more. Seven: see six. Eight: I need a drink.
Nine: it will feel better eventually. Ten: you have friends to help you through the pain.
Eleven: eventually isn’t soon enough.
Twelve: I wish I could take some of your pain.
Thirteen: Me too.
It can be hard to believe that at first, but it is a good truth to remember.
It’s a long road, but it becomes smoother with time.
sometimes it’s easier said than done, but it will when time comes. a good response for this weekend.
Thank you. It’s a journey, but one that brings healing.
You left out that it likes ice cream.
Well, it seems to have all been said, not only in your Trifextra entry but also in the comments above, so I’ll just say: nicely done :))
it will heal . . .. but oh, in between now and then 😦
Thankfully it’s not my broken heart this time….but I’ve been there.
excellent
even better when you are not going through it
Thankfully I’m not. But I certainly have before.
haven’t we all?
It’s true. Even though it feels as if all of the bones in your chest have cracked into a thousand little pieces, one day you wake up and realize it doesn’t hurt so much anymore. Sigh. Thanks for linking up.
Thankfully it’s a distant memory for me.
so hard to remember that while the break is fresh though, isn’t it?
It sure is….but every day gets easier.
I’m with Twindaddy.
Profound indeed! I think this is something everyone can relate to. Well done.
Thank you.

thanks schweetheart …i keep myself busy…which helps…its just in the minds back burner ..only strikes when I read something like your lovely words 🙂
Just keep telling yourself that and it will! (:
Thankfully it’s not my heart, but I know many who are going through it right now.
These are very true words. Well done with the prompt. Thank you for linking up!
Thanks very much.
I never know the right words to offer someone going suffering a broken heart, so all I ever wish for them is that it heals fast. Nice work with the prompt.
Thanks very much.

You’re right. Of course, it doesn’t feel like it will ever heal right after it has been trampled, but it does!
Truth in few words 😀
Thanks!
Well done. Your logic is irrefutable.
That having been said, logic has no place in matters of love.
Still, great post!
Thanks!
