We often refer to heartbreaks as those belonging only to romantic relationships. What’s often left out is that we also hurt from other relationships in our lives, and that includes the friendships we have. Was it not painful when a friend has suddenly ignored you or forgotten you? Wasn’t it just as painful to be betrayed by your best friend?
Sometimes, it’s even harder to heal from said heartbreaks. Why? Because when you make friends, you don’t prepare yourself for a breakup. You trust your friends. You don’t expect them to suddenly shatter the faith you have in them.
I wrote a comprehensive piece about this topic which I would like to share with you today:
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
