Acceptance

I heard my heart letting out a cry

as it listened to its mind 

telling her 

I’m sorry, but it really is over this time 

- acceptance

An inner conflict portrayed succinctly here. In the struggle between heart and mind, the former often wins, but here the latter has presented irrefutable evidence. Case closed. The heart, when it calms down, should write it off to experience and let it be a spur to growth.

What a wonderful expression of this inner conflict, John. You're right that the heart often wins, but sometimes, even the most hopeful of hearts have to admit defeat. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.

Your short sentiments remind me of how it's harder (in my opinion) to hurt someone by quitting them, than it is to have someone quit me. And I do feel acceptance in the midst of agony (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
