There is a desire within each of us, in the deep center of ourselves that we call our HEART. We were born with it, it is never completely satisfied, and it never dies. We are often unaware of it, but it is always awake. It is the human desire for LOVE. Every person on this earth yearns to LOVE, to be LOVED, to know LOVE.
You must listen to the deep themes of your own life story. In most of us the desire for LOVE has often been distorted or buried, but if you look at your own life with honest and gentle eyes, you can discern it in yourself as deep seeking of connectedness, healing, creation and joy. This is your true identity; it is who you really are and what you exist for.
It is possible to run away from the desire of LOVE for years, even decades, at a time, but we cannot eradicate it entirely. It keeps touching us in little glimpses and hints in our dreams, our hopes, our unguarded moments. We may go to sleep, but our desire for LOVE does not. It is who we are.
What You Believe About Your Heart Was Handed To You By Others
Our life is a story. There are many scenes, large and small, and many “firsts.” Your first step; your first word; your first day of school. There is your first best friend; your first recital; your first date; your first love; your first kiss; your first heartbreak. If you stop and think of it, your HEART has lived through quite a story thus far. And over the course of that story your HEART has learned many things. Some of what you learned is true; much of it is not. Not when it comes to the core questions about your HEART.
Is your HEART good? Does your HEART really matter? What has life taught you about that?
