Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken
If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one,
not even an animal. Wrap it carefully around hobbies and little luxuries;
avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in a casket,
safe,
dark,
motionless,
airless,
it will change.
It will not be broken, it will become:
unbreakable,
impenetrable,
irredeemable.
TO LOVE IS TO BE VULNERABLE.
~C.S. Lewis
