Speaking as someone who is still losing my everything...you'll find that even trying to have nothing more to lose, you'll end up with something. But you already know that.

But I've also found that just going with it is easier, maybe better, than trying to keep it out to protect yourself.

And you learn things about yourself as a result...even with the pain.

Or you might find that you didn't lose everything...even if you can't go back to how it was, something remains.
