H.E.A.R.T.S

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

We know the ‘heart’ as an organ in our bodies. We also know ‘heart’ to mean the innermost part of something. I began the year with acronyms and it’s been a great journey. If it sounds like the end of them, it is not. It is just a break. Let me attempt to make the last acronym before taking the break.

Happiness

Endears

And

Renders

True

Success

This implies that happiness is at the heart of everything we do. I am yet to meet someone who is motivated by unhappiness. I am yet to find someone who is not searching for some form of happiness. We search for it at the bottom of a glass, on top of a mountain, beside the one we love, at the check-out counter and in the intricate melodies woven by musicians. 

We have heard that in the search for happiness, we experience it only if we are aware of living in the present… ‘it’s the journey and not the destination that matters’….and whatnot.

“Wherever you go…go with all your heart.”

Confucius

I am right there, waiting for you to acknowledge me

I am right there, if only you could turn a little

I am right there, if only.

If only.

 

Does your heart skip a beat with the anticipation of what is to come?

Does your heart skip a beat when the thought of your loved one crosses your mind?

Does it skip a beat with the anticipation of another tomorrow?

Does it skip with the thought of….‘what if’?

 

Today’s thoughts have morphed into those of ‘happiness’. Let me close with more questions…

 

What or who is at the heart of everything you do?

What or who is your home base?

What or who is your heart?

 

“Pursue what catches your heart, not what catches your eyes.”

Roy T. Bennett
