These 33 Quotes Got Me Through Heartbreak I Thought I Would Never Survive
At some point in our lives, we all get disappointed.
It’s a universal language, a bad feeling that usually
leaves us feeling like the rug has been dragged out from under us.
Maybe a friend decided to change his/her mind,
or all the work you have put in led to nothing.
Disappointment can sting, and that sting stays with you
forever as a scar or a lesson.
It makes you wonder if you can trust again
or if it’s worth putting yourself out there to try again.
But hold on. Before you build a wall around your heart
and a mental block that stops you from going out
and exploring the world, take a moment to breathe.
Because sometimes, the best antidote to disappointment
isn’t anger (being angry at yourself or the world)
or withdrawal (returning to your comfort zone)
but a fresh perspective.
These powerful quotes offer a dose of understanding,
a reminder that setbacks are inevitable, but they don’t have to define you.
So, let these words wash over you.
