To most of us this simple word means much more than just the muscle that keeps us alive. It defines our ability to feel, to love, to care, to suffer deeply, to evolve, to fight on… it is the source of all our power, our greatest strength and our greatest weakness.
To me the word implies all that is good and bad and wonderful and frightening in a human being. It’s the essence of who we are, the inexorable truth of the human condition. Found in the center of what we call one’s soul, the heart is the passion we are capable of mustering, is the strength that we are capable of summoning, the ability to love…
Heart is where your true self lives. Heart is what you put into this world without expecting anything in return. Heart is what makes you unique, what makes you capable of all the greatness that you once thought was reserved for others.
Beautiful sentiments. ;)
A heart beautifully reflected!
So beautifully written!
I believe similar. Heart is not just a pump for our blood stream. It defines us, who we are and keeps our emotion and memorize it.
I believe our soul is in our Heart.
I heart this :)
All dictionaries should define “heart” like this! Beautiful. :)
Yes. Good thoughts!
Heart is a concept. Totally agreed, it’s nice to read.
I think there is much more in regards to the heart, however; I also think you did a really great job of describing yours!
How hearty of you.
Very nice indeed. I love that it is good/bad/wonderful/frightening. All so true.
Wow. Such a beautiful piece of writing.
wow …..this is awesome… beautiful..
Truly agree with you…Heart is not just an organ or a muscle…It speaks of who we are..Like they say your heart shows in your eyes…A peaceful happy heart will have the same reflected through eyes…It the one power that makes human love despite pain, suffering and sacrifices…it keeps loving
