Ive never related to a song more in my life than this one. It’s 100 percent easier to stay broken and I’ll forever be that…broken.
This song has resonated with me very deeply as well. So I can only imagine what pain you must be going through to feel so broken. And I know how isolating it can be when you are in that space. A lot of people think that brokenness means we are weak…in reality it’s really an opportunity to show ourselves our true strengths and it reveals where we need to heal. Often we feel that we must go through it alone and we suffer in silence, but we are always here for an ear and to help you feel supported during that process. Because we aren’t designed to go through brokenness alone.
A little of my backstory: I too feel broken beyond repair at 30 years old and losing my wife of nine years. I learned through this process; that I am capable so much more than I ever thought I could be and that means you can do that too. And It’s gives me an opportunity to help you which helps me in my brokenness as well. So we can heal together. That’s The ultimate goal of Heart Support is to heal the scene. Just hang in there. You can do this. I believe in you.
I hear you, friend. It’s hard to feel stuck in this constant war with yourself, knowing that healing is out there yet feeling like it’s out of reach, or maybe even like it’s not meant for you at all. It can feel like you’re trapped inside this invisible shell, where everything you’ve been through just keeps piling up around you, layer by layer. You get used to the weight of it all, and after a while that heaviness almost becomes a part of who you are. It’s this core component of your own reality, if not your own normality. And somehow… there is something comforting in what feels familiar, even if it might not always be safe or pleasant. Trying to break out of that shell seems on the other hand way too hard, like climbing an endless mountain. Staying as you are, in this place where at least you know the terrain, feels so much bearable.
It makes so much sense to feel that way. When everything around you feels unchangeable, the idea of doing the impossible, like moving forward, can feel impossible. It’s like a distant dream that’s hard to believe in as it has yet to be lived. It leaves a sense of permanence in the very thing you wish could change.
My friend, being broken doesn’t mean you’re beyond hope or beyond care. You are here, sharing this, and it’s easy to overlook how much energy and strength it takes. In those moments, it’s worth remembering that just because something feels impossible doesn’t mean it truly is. I understand though what it’s like to feel so weighed down by that sense of brokenness… where even picturing things being different seems exhausting and pointless. For me, there are days when just getting through feels like a full time job. Over time, I learned that sharing those feelings in the midst of all my fears and uncertainty, even just to myself or out loud, is a huge step I don’t always value as such.
I see that strength in you right now, friend. There is a beautiful light in you that shines through, even if it’s hidden behind a lot of pain at the moment. That light is the part of you that’s still here, still fighting, still showing up. When we’re deep in our struggles it’s easy to miss that part of ourselves that’s so eager to keep trying, believing, and has SO much yet to offer and receive from this world. I think of it as this radiant flame, maybe small some days but it never truly goes out. It’s still waiting to guide you forward little by little.
You’ve got this light, friend. I see it. I see you. Sending you so much hugs today.
