"And the men who hold high places, must be the ones who start, to mold a new reality, closer to the heart. The blacksmith and the artist, reflected in their art, forge their creativity closer to the heart." Neil Peart
I believe that each one of us can work to live closer to our hearts. I think it is as simple (and as challenging) as paying close attention to our words. Words have such power, not only when spoken or written, but when they are withheld and unexpressed.
Words are tools. And like most tools, used improperly or without consideration, they can become dangerous and even destructive. They can be used as weapons and raised in defense. What could our world, our reality be if we all honed our skills with these tools and used them to build and connect? Living closer to our hearts?
For me, I will spend today in my heart and be cognizant of the words I choose and how I choose to express them.
