What The Heart Knows.

I was reading at article regarding the origins of emotion. What was once thought to be a construct of mind, now appears to have a basis in heart.

Meaning, the signal for all that we sense and reveal is created at a much deeper level.

Though, I can’t say that I’m surprised. Dating back thousands of years, the Egyptians believed that heart was the source of the soul. That all thoughts, emotions and memories were given life through the heart’s gentle coursing.

Even Shakespeare recognized the heart’s dedication to mind’s service;

“Hear my soul speak. Of the very instant that I saw you, Did my heart fly at your service”

Though, how easily we may forget – that these matters of heart evade an intellectual solution.

Sometimes, we must simply act, my loves – to effect resolution on the basis of heart.

And, in doing so – perhaps, we may create a better world? One fashioned from the energy of love, rather than limited by the voice of reason.

Just a little something to consider, my friends. A reminder that “the heart has its reasons which reason knows not.” (Blaise Pascall)

In peace…

Namaste ❤️
