When Hearts Break and Tears Fall

Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.

Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,

“Nothing, I just helped him cry.”

I Thought

You thought you know what love is until someone breaks your heart.

Then you really hope you learned and not make the same mistake again.

I am just wondering, what about the people who broke your heart?

Will they learn something or will they break more hearts?
