My heart is a fragile container that holds every moment she has absorbed. She holds on tightly with love and her constant worry for others. It is something she has done for most of her days. If I focus outside of myself it feels distracting. When I do look inside I see that I am all that I judge in others.

Should we live in our mind, heart, or both? If my heart feels like it holds my worry and my brain is where the worry churns and stirs, then which is at fault for my constant state of fear?

Somedays feel easy but my go to is worried. It is so tiring. I am going to stop. Every day, I will breathe into the tightness I have inside and let life unfold. Life has shown me in so many ways to trust even if I tend to focus on all of the ways that life didn’t happen how I thought it should I see that it is happening how it is.

Even if life feels cruel I can see all the beauty and goodness.  A heart is meant to stay open.  A heart is meant to move your energy around your body.  A heart is not meant to worry.  When I try to take on the problems of our world or people I love I feel heavy.  When I give worry to the wind tethered to a prayer I feel hopeful and light.  

Do I believe we should live from the mind or heart?  I feel if we are in the moment, really in the moment, we are living in complete balance with our heart and mind.  They are not enemies but the best of friends.  Somehow the mind gets a little less loud when we surrender into what the heart needs.  

I am reminded to take care when it comes to what I feed my mind and heart.  This world can feel sick and unkind if you search for this.  This world and people can also feel very beautiful, tenderhearted, and good if you search for this.  

Every day, I plan on looking in the direction of hope.  Maybe this doesn’t make me joyful all the time but I do feel like a funneled focus towards hope is the most symbiotic direction to aim for.  It leaves me feeling open to be delighted by life and truly believe in living differently than I ever really have before. 

Ease and flow sound nice to this overthinking mind and deeply feeling heart. My heart might feel fragile and my mind screaming at times but I believe I am getting better with time. I believe in change for the better and I believe in finding good in the moment will always serve your highest good. It’s not that I have ever lived in a wrong way, I just feel that I am reaching to live even more in harmony with each moment. It feels so nice.
