but
not

using
the
online
alias
"BruisedHeart"
for
years
now.
It
all
started
when
I
was
a
young
adult,
still
trying
to
find
my
way
in
the
world.
I
had
just
gone
through
a
tough
break-up
with
my
first
serious
boyfriend
and
felt
completely
lost.
I
needed
a
way
to
express
my
pain
and
disappointment,
and
the
internet
seemed
like
the
perfect
outlet. I
chose
the
name
"BruisedHeart"
because
it
embodied
exactly
how
I
felt
at
the
time.
My
heart
was
battered
and
bruised,
but
it
hadn't
been
broken.
I
was
wounded,
but
I
wasn't
defeated.
The
name
served
as
a
reminder
that
no
matter
how
hurt
I
felt,
I
had
the
strength
to
keep
going. Over
the
years,
"BruisedHeart"
has
become
more
than
just
an
online
alias.
It's
a
symbol
of
resilience
and
perseverance.
Whenever
I'm
going
through
a
tough
time,
I
remember
that
young
woman
who
felt
so
lost
and
alone.
I
remember
that
even
though
I
felt
like
I
was
drowning
in
pain,
I
managed
to
keep
my
head
above
water. Of
course,
I
have
had
my
fair
share
of
physical
injuries
as
well.
I
play
sports
and
have
had
my
share
of
bruises,
sprains,
and
even
a
broken
bone.
Each
time
I
get
hurt,
I
think
back
to
the
name
"BruisedHeart"
and
it
helps
me
push
through
the
pain.
I
remind
myself
that
I
am
strong
and
that
I
can
overcome
any
obstacle,
whether
it's
physical
or
emotional. In
the
end,
"BruisedHeart"
is
more
than
just
a
name.
It's
a
reminder
of
everything
I
have
been
through
and
everything
I
have
overcome.
It
reminds
me
that
even
when
I'm
hurt,
I'm
not
defeated.
I
have
the
strength
and
determination
to
keep
going,
no
matter
what
life
throws
my
way.
