It hurts that much because you loved that much.
You chose to love, knowing full well that you can be hurt. But you loved, anyway. Because you believed in the possibility of something greater. And that – the belief, the hope, the possibility – shouldn’t die when the hurt sets in. It is how you can bring yourself to love again.
Do not let the pain of loss overshadow the joy of hope.
Life is about choices. So is love. Choose. After everything that’s happened. Choose to love. Again.

ContentEd. It's both a title (short for content editor) and a descriptor (being satisfied in life).
I focus on brand-building content strategy in the digital space. I have a never-ending booklist and I consume varied content on a daily basis. My habit of hoarding information helps me pick other people's brains over tea. I enjoy meeting people and have a knack for asking the right questions. My secret (yet uncapitalised and unmonetised) skill is leading others towards personal epiphanies.
I've written a self-published book on content marketing for a boutique digital marketing agency. Once in a while, I appear in social media to talk about the online world. My latest book project is on mental illness and the Christian community. Some of the my blog entries may make it to another book about singleness in the not-so-near future.
Because life is short and the days are long, I also have a weekly podcast.
