Beautifully Flawed

"If you have a heart, of any size, don't worry...  worrying only hinders growth.  It accomplishes nothing.  If you have a heart, don't worry...  the world will break it on a daily basis.  And then you'll be human.  Flawed, imperfect yes...  but you'll have your beautiful, broken heart.

And eventually, you'll have a tested, tattered soul...  weathered, but undeniably better for earning its troubled brow.  And the heaviness of your consoling conscience.  Grow into the soil, travel to the depths of empathy's roots, fundamental and entrenched.

Most won't comprehend why we may smile, in remembrance of unabashedly balling our eyes out, smile with a glimpse of the promises of hope.  But we do, and shall grow into a seasoned soul, with a liberated heart...  beautifully flawed."
