People in my family are great at breaking things.
We are to breaking things as Michael Jordan is to basketball.

We've broken everything:
toilets
nails
a vintage rocking chair
hearts
a fish tank
wind
ligaments
bottles.
(luckily my dad can fix most of these)

Though at times this can be embarrassing, I’m beginning to realize that sometimes things are better when they’re broken
like eggs
and mosaic tiles
and maybe hearts sometimes.
(because brokenness is always about what you make of it)
