“It isn’t easy when life tears away the one person in a million you thought you could always trust.”
― Benjamin R. Smith, Atlas

“It has always seemed to me that broken things, just like broken people, get used more; it's probably because God has more pieces to work with.”
― Bob Goff, Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World

“Thank You"
she whispered soft
like it may
blow away
with anything stronger
than a breathe,
"for fixing me."
"You,"
I sputtered out
like the first sound
of morning,
"were never
broken.”
― Tyler Knott Gregson, Chasers of the Light: Poems from the Typewriter Series

“Part of you is broken, and the other part is bitter. Part of you wants to cry, and part of you wants to fight. The tears you cry are hot because they come from your heart, where there is a fire burning. It’s the fire of anger. It’s blazing. It’s consuming. Its flames leap up under a steaming pot of revenge. And you are left with a decision. “Do I put the fire out or heat it up? Do I get over it or get even? Do I release it or resent it? Do I let my hurts heal, or do I let hurt turn into hate?”. . . Resentment is the deliberate decision to nurse the offense until it becomes a black, furry, growling grudge . . . Unfaithfulness is wrong. Revenge is bad. But the worst part of all is that, without forgiveness, bitterness is all that is left.”
