Up until this moment I have thought that living is an art that some of us pay attention to and some don’t and yet all of us succeed. I have thought that when you love someone, the music is perfect, the sound is accurate, the smell is delicious and the picture is golden, I have thought that when you love someone you protect them with your everything and that when you hurt them you damage yourself. Up until this point I have believed that children have a light in them that we all have the responsibility to help glow brighter and brighter each day, though many times many of us exercise the opposite power.
There are many thoughts that keep us company, when we hold the hand of a loved one, when we sing our most favorite song, when we sit with the bereaved, we hold ourselves in a certain position and those others to in theirs. The positions that we take in the lives of people and those that we give them in our own lives tell us greatly of who we are, of what makes us who we are as well. The right light can be hard to tell some times, the right window will be missed sometimes. When we find ourselves away from what defined us, apart from those people and things that hold us in one place, when we get to the point of seeking and find no answers, then we are forced to take a closer look to ourselves.
But what does it mean to take a closer look at ourselves? To answer that well, we should firstly understand what looking means and what we means by ourselves. I believe that in looking we consider with our hearts, that we let the gates of the mouth, eyes and ears tell our hearts what they have observed in a way that the heart with speak to them the corrections that should be. Because the heart has a language and the heart speaks indeed. Ourselves will involve our persona, our environment and all that we have set ourselves to.
Speaking of that then will help us see ourselves totally and we shall consider with accuracy. The people that make us understand with our hearts, the moments in life that speak to our hearts in ways that we desire again, that we sing again are those that we have been prepared for both silently and otherwise.
The construction of our lessons is amazing but the result has always been my fascination. Do I drop all that I have believed up until this point? No. up until this point and beyond, I believe that when you love someone you protect them with all that you are and have got. That does not change even when the motives of loving them may change. I am constantly touched by what I consider to be the purest innocence, that of children. Each encounter makes me appreciate life a bit better and also appreciate myself, it makes me review my path in life both retrogressively and progressively and then truly understand what there was or will be or is to learn.
Up until this point I thought that I knew what I wanted but I have been corrected to understand that some wants are forever while others are temporal and that when the change happens, it does not make one want better than the other, it’s just the relevance points that change. Do we stand and asses ourselves against what was or should have been or do we asses ourselves on grounds of what’s right. The most important lessons teach the heart what’s right; the purest deeds are the good deeds. And when we devote ourselves to these, we do right.
The point is, there will always a point at which we realize that what we have held true is either wrong or indeed true and that we needed to understand it better.
New discoveries have always warmed my heart, new frontiers have sometimes intimidated me, but something in me always brought me to take on the challenge. I have been afraid of the changes in the future and then realized that that’s one road I will always take, so I have grown to realize that those are merely moments for me to raise again.
I have been satisfied with love and then found myself in need again, we keep discovering new needs, we keep coming across people that warm our hearts with beautiful sounds and then we realize that the feeding of the heart is ongoing and to stop it for a moment, is to create a vacuum that’s damaging.
That said, I have to say that I have written this article without thinking which direction its going to take but merely writing. From the abundance of the heart, the mouth shall speak.
