The depths of your heart can turn out to be a pretty pure place to go. I once thought it's a place of intense misunderstanding and where the past lived, but I have come to find that it's actually a place of purity.
Intensity. The depths of our heart is an intense place. Many view this place as something to be feared because it is indeed intense in itself. But does it have to be such a bad thing that the purest place in our soul brings out a fire in us that can set a flame to others hearts as well?
What if living with intensity we could fully experience our emotions and experience life as we should be? Would we feel so bad about being intense? Probably not. Rather, we would fearlessly trek into the unknown thrilled to encounter the challenges that arrive.
When we shut ourselves off from experiencing negative feelings we also shut ourselves off from experiencing the wide array of positive ones too. The midst of your heart can be a place that you can go to grasp the truths about yourself instead of a place that you have to be frightened of. In this place, there exist lessons of love and passion. Why wouldn't you want to go there?
I believe we are terrified of this place because we have experienced how wild and intense a number of these feelings we are going through are and that scares the hell out of us. For whatever reason, we are taught to keep a lid on ourselves and not stray too far outside the middle because that's the secure place to play. No, I'd rather climb perilous trees and travel into unknown lands than play it safe.
That game is not for me...the playing it safe game in life.
The depths of your heart could be a place you go to grasp the intricacies and perplexities of this life. There are very many things that we don't understand about what is occurring in this world just because we can't see them. Often, you have got to run on true faith. You need to be willing to put your feet forward, one after the next straight into the dense fog and function on faith.
Will it be one of the scariest journeys you will ever take? Yes.
Time and time again you are going to have to travel into the depths to start really understanding who you are. You are going to have to suffer growing pains and what comes along with trying on new things. But if you do, you can become something far greater than who you are right now.
So what will it be today?
