Heart Song

What makes your heart sing? The rough tongue of a puppy on your cheek? Yellow daffodils in spring after too many weeks of snow and cold? The gnarled hand of a beloved elder that touches you with a wise knowing?

We all experience from time to time those sacred moments in life that open our hearts and strike a perfect chord of well-being and bliss. It is within these moments that we can see more clearly the essence of who we are within the core of our being.

The pup that so freely gives unconditional love reminds us that at our core we too can love freely and unconditionally. The bright colors of spring after the drab winter remind us that new life always follows death and that if we will but surrender to what is trying to die - we will inevitably find something new trying to come to life and grow. The wisdom and knowing in the gnarled hand helps us to know that the difficulties of life are able to sage us in beautiful ways. Acceptance of the lessons in life opens us up to a deep knowing.

Keep your eyes open to the sacred moments in life and take a moment to learn something new about what they are telling you about your core essence. What makes your heart sing?
