Heartbreak can stop you from moving forward in life, it can feel like an insurmountable wall. It takes you to a place where getting up seems impossible, forcing you to question your very identity. Why wasn’t I enough? Why wasn’t I the one? you might ask. Was it my looks, my personality, or my financial status? These doubts can spiral, leading you to believe there’s something inherently wrong with you.
It leads to asking so many questions about who we are and what we did wrong. Sometimes the pain is so unbearable people want to quit and have nothing more to do with relationships.
I know it hurts. When it hurts so bad that you think that you can’t take it any longer. And you wonder what is going to happen to you, if it is going to be okay. No one can see the future and at that point… you think there isn’t any future for you. But there is hope. Look past the hurt and start to focus on what your new future could like.
Finding Hope Beyond Heartbreak
They say hindsight is 20/20, but some things are better left blurred. Dwelling on the pain of the past only weighs down your soul and stifles your future self. If you keep replaying the hurt, it will continue to fester, holding you back. The sooner you begin to focus on writing a new story for yourself, the sooner you can start moving forward.
Healing takes time. Give yourself the space to rest and process your emotions. But also keep working on productive activities that keep your mind engaged. Keeping busy can prevent the hurt and pain from creeping back into your heart during moments of stillness.
In those quiet, solitary times, choose activities that nurture and heal your heart instead of pulling you back into the past. Surround yourself with uplifting influences, and avoid spending time with people who dwell on negativity or the hurt. Instead, look for ways to release the pressure. Listen to music that inspires and uplifts you—avoid songs that reinforce feelings of sorrow or loss.
Serve Others to Heal Yourself
One of the most fulfilling ways to move past heartbreak is by helping others. Volunteer at a shelter that serves the poor or homeless. Spend time at an animal rescue center caring for injured or lost pets. Many community organizations need volunteers for activities that benefit the greater good. When you help others, you fill your own soul with purpose and joy. We’re wired to give and serve—it’s one of the most beautiful ways to heal.
Reconnect With Your Spirituality
Spend time with God. In Him, you can find peace and healing. Share your pain, your anger, and your sadness openly with Him—it’s okay to feel these emotions. But also take the time to listen. God’s gentle voice brings peace and joy back into your life when you’re ready to hear it. Remember, your story isn’t over; it’s just beginning. God has a beautiful adventure planned for you, filled with hope and purpose.
