I don’t use my eyes when I look at people because if I do, I’ll end up hurting and misunderstanding them, it will make them lonely, and I don’t want that to happen. Using our eyes more than our hearts is the same as deceiving ourselves. We all know that the body is ephemeral and ever-changing, why focus on it? One day that person will lose his smooth skin and voluptuous muscles and if they were the reason that you loved him then it follows that sooner or later you’ll choose to go away.
People are more than just bodies; we are much more than our façade.
We are burning souls waiting for someone to embrace the heat, not just the fire.
This is so true and something I didn’t really understand until I began to learn Therapeutic Touch. Now I can visit patients in the hospital without any thought of dis-ease or the machinery. I just connect with the heart of the staff and patients. This in turn is allowing me to connect with the hearts of coworkers instead of their physical. Love the artwork too. Have a beautiful day!!

Thanks a lot! It’s good to know that more people are getting more connected to each other in a deeper way. Using our hearts is actually beneficial because it makes us feel things more than we criticize their superficial dimension. 🙂 Have a great day!
