“When those you love deeply reject you, leave you, or die, your heart will be broken.
But that should not hold you back from loving deeply.
The pain that comes from deep love makes your love ever more fruitful.”
Henri Nouwen
Take a Word asked for HEARTS and I got myself wondering about this universal pain, after all who has never had a broken heart?

It has finally occurred to me that this week challenge is related to Valentine's Day (we don't celebrate it in Brazil). So, I apologize for choosing such a gloomy take on the theme.
ResponderExcluirA very touching and sensitive piece art, Chris. I love the quote and I love your illustration of it.
ResponderExcluirYour chose is just right, and a heart can be broken in Valentine's, too. Touching and well done, Christine.
ResponderExcluirI love your piece dear Chris....so touching and tender! xx
ResponderExcluirSad but beautiful, Chris. From the prospective of my great age (!) I have to say the times our hearts are broken make us somehow stronger and wiser. Applause from my corner for this lovely bit of art.
ResponderExcluirChris your art piece speaks volumes my dear.
ResponderExcluirVery lovely. You are right, the pain of love is just as much a part as the happiness. Beautiful work.
ResponderExcluirThank you so much for your visit to The Tearoom!
