"There is only so much distance you can walk with a heart that's bruised. Eventually, whether you like it or not, you'll get used to it and you might even find yourself feeling strengthened by it and find yourself wanting to get to a better place, a place that's not where you came from, a place that's just liberating whilst at the same time being a reminder of whatever you've been through and whomever you've become by doing everything you had to, just to get there", the mood was very intense when he said those words to himself standing in front of the mirror.

His heart occupied his emotions and his brain put forth logic in front of him.

"It's just, if there were things that were meant to be in your life, they will be in your life and coming to truce with that is as hard as not having those things that we would like to have. Eventually though, all that self deprecating possessiveness about those things that weren't meant to be in your life will fade away, granted it will happen very slowly but it will nevertheless happen", he continued, wanting to believe every word he had just uttered. He could feel his body shaking a little and he could feel every single tense nerve of his body.
He wasn't really sure if moving on was what he wanted or if staying where he was was what he was looking to accomplish. Staying hadn't helped him, he had stayed there too long only to witness the same things over and over again with slight variations. Moving on was something he wanted to do but he didn't know how. The neutral zone was, well, too neutral and he didn't know where or what his next step would be.
