If you've been hurt in the past,
you may have a protective barrier...
that keeps others from getting too close.
But don't let old heartaches shut you down.
Better to sew up these old wounds...
than dance with old ghosts.
Be resilient; pain and loss are part of life.
Give up fear! Cross the threshold to courage.
Open your arms as wide as you can.
Love, love, love the world...
and the world will love you back.
