Think about it: Coeur, the French word for HEART is the root of the English word Courage. Have the courage to reach out to everyone this Valentine’s Day.
Our hearts ARE at the center of our bodies. This organ at our center is not only the center of our circulatory systems, but metaphorically is considered the center of our very being, spiritual and physiological.
It beats when we are energized, happy, afraid, excited. It beats ALL the time from our conception until our death. It can beat with pulsing, radiant love or it can beat with anxious terror. How do we keep in touch with our heart’s rhythms? Through our breath of course! Take a minute today and actually feel your heart at different times. Get in touch with YOUR center and what makes it react. Help others do the same.
While you are at it, get in touch with your inner child and bake some cookies for your favorite people young and old and then take it a step further and bake some more for your not so favorite people and see what happens. Amazing the power a beautifully decorated and wrapped cookie possesses. Have the courage to present these presents. Whether you are thanked or not, matters not. I think it is probably safe to say that all will be grateful whether they tell you or not and that’s what giving is all about isn’t it?
