Broken?

I’m not sure which hurts more: a broken nail or a broken heart. I’m certain they have a lot in common. For example the “broken” in each of them means fall apart. Your nail breaks, your heart breaks, I’m sure you get the point . These things are sudden , sometimes it’s expected, you know how this goes right? If you can’t relate, well, I wish I were you .The pain varies from person to person, finger nails to finger nails, toe nails to toe nails.The same way you can’t control the growth of your nail is the same way you can’t control who you fall in love with.

My nail broke today and I’m hurt. I’m screaming internally . My thumb which is one of the most active fingers, the nail broke today. I’ve been keeping and nurturing this nail for 2 months!! Growing my nails has always been an extreme sport. I’ve always had to be conscious of my nails when I’m washing plates or clothes, writing , typing , you know, all that stuff. My nails are weak. But they keep growing, -and cutting. I can’t stop it. Sometimes I decide to be oblivious to the fact that it’s growing just so I don’t jinx it. But it ends up happening. I like to think it’s the same way with love sometimes. You know what they say about relationships right ? I can’t tell you that, but I’m sure you know what I’m talking about .

Nails and love? I probably sound ridiculous to you, but hey, I’m right. Don’t you see it? You can’t control who you love, you can’t control nail growth. Breakups can be avoided don’t you think? Except if the both of you or three fall out of love and life happens. You can’t stop life from happening right? I hate to think that my nails stopped loving me so they broke up with me. Ugh. I could go on and on as to why they are related but oh well.

What can I do to stop these nails from breaking every single time ? Send help.

Anyway, How’d your day go and what are you having for dinner?
