Open Heart

The heart is an amazing thing.

But not the one that beats endlessly.

Hidden inside your chest.I’m talking about the one connected to your soul. The heart that gets tugged in different directions.

In the right direction and sometimes in the wrong direction. The heart can be open or closed.If it is open, it can take us places we need to go. But keeping your heart open is not always easy.

Depending on who you are.Heart wide open can leave you vulnerable.

You could get hurt.So you might have a tendency to close your heart.And put up your defenses.

Or depending on your style become a recluse.

Without even realizing it. Closing your heart has a way of coming back to bite you.  You can’t get away with it.The repercussions of a closed heart can leave you feeling caged in.You start to get lonely.Life becomes predictable and boring.So you make the decision to open your heart. Immediately you feel playful.You realize opening your heart brings love. And who can live without love?  Love is the essence of the heart.

Not many a living breathing thing can live without it.

So become aware of when your heart is closed.

Be aware of fear, anger and anxiety.

Symptoms of a closed heart.

Don’t let those things get a hold of you and rub you the wrong way.

Try opening your heart.

To see what that does for your spirit.Chances are you will be glad you did.

Adios Amigos!
