Broken Heart

Imagine one of the worst things you think about yourself. Something that drains the life out of you. Causes you to shrivel up inside.

Then imagine someone actually saying it to you. It's confirmation that the thing you think is true about yourself really is true. It's not just in your head -- other people see it, think it, and worst of all, say it.

That happened to me Friday afternoon. It took all the wind out of my sails. It devastated me.

It broke my heart. I got home, lay down on my bed, and wept into the pillow. Life stinks sometimes.
