15 Incidents That Happen In Life Which Break Your Heart

Life becomes memorable because of moments.

Moments of joy, of melancholy, of peacefulness, of happiness shared, of love and accomplishments. And these moments are what make life livable. They give life significance and meaning. They are what makes you, YOU.

Although happy moments are what we seek in life, it is inevitable to escape sadness on the way too. And although these moments are not exactly enjoyed, they have a profound effect on us and in the end, help in making us a better person and learn a bit more about life itself.
