The heart connection

The thing about crisis or feeling bad is that things get taken away from you. You lose your boyfriend or your money or your health or your peace of mind... and then you feel bad. And we're afraid of feeling bad - and then think there's something wrong with us for feeling bad because everything in our crazy society tells us we "should" always feel good, be successful, be in control, etc. And when things change or seem to go wrong, we are terrified because we don't feel good or successful or in control.

But I've noticed that when things get taken away from us something marvelous does happen - WE DISCOVER OUR HEARTS.  When things get taken away we find our heart connection. And it can be a very powerful and often scary discovery because we've never been there before. But if you can rest in your heart - if you can allow yourself to feel what you are truly feeling - you will begin to see the wonder and the wisdom that is buried in your very own heart. And then you will see that it's this very heart connection that everyone is seeking. Because it's authentic, because it's the real you, and because it's love...
