My Heart Hurts

[Savage Kitten]

As strange as it may sound, last night around 10.30pm my heart began to ache pretty badly. For no apparent reason I guess? Not a hurting or painful sensation.. just a bad ache that made me wanna cry... I came home and went straight to bed and awoke this morning with a faint shadow of the ache still there.

This morning about 8.30am I found out my best friend's mom passed away approx. an hour before. When I got a break from class I went to see about her, you can only imagine how distraught she was. I felt so sad for her. I never knew her mom, but I felt as though I had lost my own mom. I came back a couple times during the day to comfort her, trying to be as strong as I could. Each time, after I left, I cried.

I guess it's times like these that test our emotions. No matter how high, or how strong, I think the wall is that I've built around my heart... today has shown me that it still can be reached... and that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Times like this that remind us... we are only human after all. With emotions, connections, and a physical ending. A reminder to rejoice and cherish every minute.

Hugs to you darling Savage, for being you.
