Dear Heart

Dear Heart,
It's nice to talk to you again. I know it's been a while since you were able to open yourself up, but can I make a request? Can you be a little more careful this time? You don't have to have everything all at once, if it's meant to happen it will come in time. Don't push too hard.
 Oh and something else, Heart. Why do you run and hide so often? You've been hurt before, but you've come through it, so why be afraid of being hurt again? I would rather you be hurt than for you to hurt someone else. It's just not right to tuck your tail and hide away... Please don't do that this time. Please confront your fear of rejection and pain, and stay open to communication. This time will be different, if you can do that for us.
 Your new fullness is beautiful, by the way. I really think it's worth working for. You know, working on patients, communication, and focusing on all those things you need to do to get to where you want to be. You can't have your cake and eat it too, first you have to gather the ingredients, mix them together properly, and then bake the damn thing. Right now you are still in the gathering ingredients phase, and I do believe it's going well. So lets keep working hard on that together and someday that cake will be worth saving a piece in the freezer.
                                                       Your's truly, with nothing but hope,
                                                                  Our Mind
