They’ve always been your heart, Mark? Then your heart has some explaining to do.

Because what does your heart really say about you?

Your heart says chaos has been your gift, not peace.
Your heart says neglect has been your choice, not protection.
Your heart says abuse has been your pattern, not love.
Your heart says evasion has been your answer, not responsibility.

If they’ve always been your heart, then your heart has been busy breaking what it should have been building. A real heart protects. A real heart nurtures. A real heart sacrifices.

Yours, Mark, has chosen control, denial, and destruction.

So when you say “they’ve always been my heart,” maybe it’s time you looked at what your heart has really done.
