It hurts, no mistaking that. But there are a few things that it should remind you about and why you should just embrace it for what it is - life and the one or one million little things that weren't quite right. But that hurt and pain you feel, it means you're alive and your heart is beating. Stand up, put one foot in front of the other and repeat indefinitely.
Some words that better express my meandering ramblings -
It’s emotionally counterproductive to pine for what we cannot have, and it also wastes a lot of time.
If you want something, ask for it. Accept the risk of rejection, and summon the courage to ask for it anyway. If you get turned down, you’ll survive. You’ll learn from the experience and grow stronger. If you don’t get rejected, you’ll achieve your outcome in the shortest and simplest way possible. When you risk rejection, either you get what you want or you build some courage. Either way the outcome is positive.Remember as with everything, including your heart - risk everything!
