Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. (Proverbs 4:23)
I've wondered quite often what it means to guard my heart. Does that mean I should guard it with everyone, even those I'm closest to?
When we've been hurt by someone, it is natural to erect boundaries. But at what point does guarding our heart cross the line from healthy boundaries to unhealthy barriers or walls that shut people out altogether?
What's the happy medium here?

I'm afraid I missed the happy medium. I don't see how I will ever again give myself completely. I'm not sure I even want to.
I think we are to guard from letting it get "hard". Sure we have to be prudent in our choices, but the really hard thing is to keep our heart soft and loving.
