All heartbreak is not eternal

Some losses are not real losses. Like being in love with the wrong guy, and finding the right guy later.

Someone steals your POS car and you get a better one. You may feel hurt at the time, but it's not as bad as you thought.

There are times when you are not a biological parent but you love the child as much as you love your own birthed from your body. I have a step daughter from a previous relationship, I raised her from 2yrs to 6yrs old. Her dad and I split then and it was only because of her mother that her brothers and I were allowed to see her. The down side to that was that if I didn't jump through hoops for her mother, or if my daughter didn't do something, anything, sneezed wrong, she wouldn't get to come to see us. There are times when out of love we have to show great courage to do what's best for your child. It is so painful to have to give up a child to someone else who may be able to handle him being out of control. The guilt, the loss, the complete failure and heartbreak I felt as his mother. His mother, the one who kisses all the hurts away, the one who hugs him tight. I'm the one to make it alright. I could not this time. He took a kitchen knife to my youngest a throat. His behavior was just too much out of control and now I couldn't even keep my youngest safe. I HAD TO LOVE HIM ENOUGH TO GET HIM HELP.

It was heartache and loss just the same.

To this very day I hate that I had to do it, what else could I do? Nothing.

So you see I have known nothing else in my life but heartache. It hurts like nothing you will ever feel in your entire life. You must understand that LOVE always has a price, your heart or your Soul, sometimes your heart and Soul.
