The Connection Of Hearts

Today I went back to see the surgeon... they say the graft is 90% healed, which is good, I can't wait for it to be 100% so that I can start walking... jogging... running.  I look forward to this spring and summer for this but I am going to relax the rest of this winter and make sure my leg heals completely.

"In our deepest moments of struggle, frustration, fear, and confusion, we are being called upon to reach in and touch our hearts. Then, we will know what to do, what to say, how to be. What is right is always in our deepest heart of hearts. It is from the deepest part of our hearts that we are capable of reaching out and touching another human being. It is, after all, one heart touching another heart."

- Roberta Sage Hamilton

So, I read this quote above and it made me think that this is how I want to be, I want to be able to reach others through their hearts by giving of myself.  I want real connections, not just the fake ones we have in our lives sometimes.  I want the real ones where I laugh so hard that my belly hurts, the ones where I can cry to get all of my feelings out.  I don't want to be afraid to say what I am thinking or feeling at any given time.

Sharing our deepest part of our hearts is one of the most difficult things to do... it's like becoming completely vulnerable, allowing someone to see the real you and finding out they love you as much as they always did if not more.  I know it doesn't always end up this way, but sharing love is never wrong... I want to be capable of touching another person through our hearts... I want to feel that real and lasting connection.

Until you have felt it, it can never be explained... there are never enough words, no matter what you say, it isn't adequate. Once you have felt it, you never give up on wanting deeper connections.  I personally don't want to waste time on anything less.

 I cherish my past, I accept my present and I dream for my future ♥
