Losing Love

LOVE... pure heroin of the heart.

When we experience love, the hormone oxytocin floods our vital senses. Unable to grasp the moment of release, we are slowly fed the emotional high of love. The steady drip of indescribable ecstasy penetrates our once clean and controllable worlds.

Similar to any other drug, the withdrawal can be excruciatingly hard to comprehend. We find a person who makes us love and suddenly they‘re gone...

Break ups happen. They are shit, but they are unavoidable in many cases. Like a wound, our hearts heal over time. It's important to know regardless of the people involved, both of you will experience the break up differently. Which is ok! But do not assume you're the only one having low days, being distracted by memories or even experiencing yourself letting go. Drugs are hard to get out of your system, we may stop the consumption, but our brain has adapted and takes time to remove the cravings.

Look at your life as a book (a best seller). Find peace and accept the end of another chapter. No one else can write your story for you. Have trust in your own path, each person has given you a piece of them, which can't be unwritten. Regardless of the type of breakup be respectful, you both chose each other for a reason once upon a time, don't let yourself change the narrative because of your hurt.

Everything happens for a reason. Have trust in your life. If someone can walk out of it, let them. Just think of all the exciting chapters to come.
