The first thing that come to mind is a visual of my heart with a bunch of bandages of all different sizes and shapes there have some big wounds to it as of late some people I truly cared about have emotionally pushed me away: this hurts my heart more then people realize particularly since my loss. It opens up old scars on my heart that are very sensitive. These scars on my heart have been reopened and patched over many times , I am well aware that these scars will probably be reopened again and I will need to do more patching again in the form of emotional self care, therapy and grief work my heart feels of kind of tired old and beat up. It makes me feel kind sad as I suspect my heart has looked this way for a good while I have never been asked to describe “The condition of my heart ‘ in this way before and it felt a little strange at first if I am being totally honest.
