Theme: “Broken Things” ~ Careful, Fragile! Part 2

Last time, I talked about dropping my iPhone and cracking it for first
time in my life. I tried to be disappointed and depressed like the average
person but I soon lost interest in that and got used to the strange look. Then I went on using it
as I had been before.

While I’m continuing to use it, the
screen is cracking more little by little. Sometimes I don’t notice, and other
times I pretend not to notice. After a while I got used to it continuing to
crack. The cracks keep overlapping, someday it will shatter.

This is similar to the heart. The
first wound the heart gets, it makes a big impact and strong memory that
lingers. But as the heart gets hurt more and more, the impact and presence (of
the first wound) becomes weaker and weaker over time. As I get hurt more and more,
the wounds lose their sting.

However, it accumulates and spreads and little by
little it piles up, but then the heart explodes. The heart is in tatters while
you pretend not to notice. Just like the touchscreen, it continues to crack
until it shatters. The cracked screen never returns to its original form.

The heart is the same, don’t you think? I think it
would be convenient if things like the heart could be taken out and repaired
when broken. But that doesn’t mean that you get it back healed, but replaced
with a new one. Even if that were possible, eventually it would get scratched
or scratch something else. It would only repeat again.

The heart is not an object. There is no need overprotective, the heart
doesn’t need to be protected. When I face my heart, I cherish it
more. If you nurse your heart, something you can’t exchange, then you’ll be
happy.
