The only thing that can heal a broken heart is time.

actually, i disagree. i don’t believe that time heals all wounds. what i believe, is that only one can heal oneself. time is not the healer. you are the healer. and the people around you, encouraging you - we are the helpers. we support you, we comfort you, we do everything we can for you. but it all boils down to the fact that only you can bring about your own happiness by picking yourself up from where you’ve fallen.
time is just a factor. sure, with time, the pain will fade, but it is still there, and it will always be there, lingering. do you really think that when you are heartbroken, time will mend your heart, slowly but surely? no, no, nothing will change, unless you help yourself. after all, you cannot forget what you don’t want to forget. the only thing that can heal a broken heart? is yourself.
