Wrecking Ball

While the earth needs it’s moisture I could use a covered patio.
Reflection will have to happen through a window to the patio this morning.

Personal experience and observing others regarding wall building and it’s effects, has lead me to share a few thoughts. I hope you can relate.

Even if you’re like me and watch very little TV there is only a slight chance that you have missed Miley Cyrus and her very popular Wrecking Ball song and video. I am by nature a curious girl which isn’t always good for me.
The song is about a broken love relationship. Part of the lyrics state this “I came in like a wrecking ball” and “All I wanted was to break your walls”. The video was proof that some people’s creative gene’s are working overtime.

In a recent interview I was asked what advice I would give young people today. I said, that while it sounds cliché I would tell them to refrain from sex while they are dating. My reason for this is that it clouds our thinking, and we could end up with a person that is all wrong for us.

Now I’m not saying (because obviously I don’t know) that Miley was having sex. But if she based her lyrics off of a personal relationship than it’s safe to say that her mate had built a wall around themselves unable to give all they had to a relationship.

We tend to do this wall building when our hearts have been hurt, broken, crushed or torn out. Hurt and pain can happen everyday in almost every situation. A wall can be built overnight, or overtime. It starts as protection, or out of fear, or due to a lack of trust. Being rejected in love whether parental, peers or couples that rejection can be grounds for walls to be built.

When we live, work or are related to people we love and care about who have walls what should we do? What do we do with our own walls that we’ve built?
Miley says “come in like a wrecking ball”.
