The Heart Speaks the Truth

You hear people say, “It’s better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all”. But is it really better? Is it better to have lost someone you loved more than anything than to never have had them in your life in the first place? I think not. If you have never been loved, you can imagine what it would be like, how you would feel, and then hope that someday you would have that. But imagine losing someone and know that they’re never going to come back; that your life has been turned upside down and it’s never going to be the same again. Can there be anything worse than that? It might sound good or touching when you read it in a book, while lying on your bed, about to go to sleep, but in real life, it's not so plausible.
