How far and for how long do we walk with a person?
Do we walk until our feet hurt? Do we walk until we think it's time to go home? Do we walk and then stop when we feel we've done our share? Maybe you're even too proud to walk beside someone and so you just " instruct " them about the way?
When I look around and listen to what other people are saying I wonder why they just don't get rid of the hurt once and for all that they continue to carry day after day. And that hurt may just be as easy as forgiving someone who wronged them. Maybe they've forgiven others but still cannot forgive themselves? Oh, such a terrible burden to bear.
My brother Dominick just said the other day " words are powerful " AND he's right. Words also reveal something about you, and me and what's going on inside us and how we feel about certain things. Often times we feel like we're good at hiding something but we're not! Most of us can't keep quiet and most of us speak before we think instead of thinking before we speak.
There's something greater than all of us- out there. But this power isn't just OUT THERE, it dwells inside us.
The power dwells inside us but we don't feed it. We might feed it but we're feeding it poison!
Were you ever told " listen to your heart? " Well, then do you? What is your heart saying? Is it good? Is it bad? Is it happy? Is it sad?
Our hearts have feelings - ever have a broken heart?
My heart and your heart beat together, always. May the beat be joyous, always.
So how far and for how long do we walk with a person? While the heart still beats we can walk.
