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?
Maybe this intensity is actually how we were supposed to live our lives? Maybe this intensity is the exact thing that should be coming out in us and we should fight to keep it alive?
if we deaden the intensity of what is in our hearts we fail to live this life to its fullest. We succumb to mediocrity and suffer the consequences of not chasing after our dreams. There is no grander punishment to ourselves than this.
And yet, we all see to avoid the depths of our hearts because of the punishing feelings we go through when pieces of our hearts break. For whatever reason, we are taught to stuff things down and not feel them so we can pretend that we are doing ok. But does that really serve us in the long run? Does that make us better people?
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.
Is it going to be scary? Oh you bet.
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 you do today?
