Love comes and it goes. Love is putting down any barriers and letting someone inside of your heart. It takes courage to give someone your heart and trust them with it. Many of us become afraid of putting our heart out there especially if it's been torn apart in a previous relationship.
Many of us become afraid to love because we’re tired of being hurt. Some of us don't ever want to experience being hurt again. Why? It takes too much time to get over it.
We may be afraid to love again, but we won't dismiss the possibility. We can't control when we fall in love because love just happens. Love will sneak up on you when you least expect it. Love is innocent and does not hurt. It only hurts when the one you love takes their love away. This is what makes us afraid to love.
Bottom line is that none of us want to be hurt which is what will cause us to just give up on love all together. We will keep those barriers up and stray away from anyone that tries to get close enough to us to get over those barriers.
Eventually, we have to get over being afraid. There’s not one person that wants to wake up and find that you’re all alone. That’s the risk that we take when we choose to love. I guess you can say that life is a risk.
