This morning I read “From the heart arise unknowable impulses as well as conscious feeling, moods, and wishes The heart, too, has its reasons and is the center of perception and understanding” (Nouwen). To me the heart is where love and God reside, not thoughts, logic and reasoning. In most cases thoughts and logic tend to be fear based, focused on consequences and what ifs. I prefer to focus on love so I go into meditation, shut off my brain, focus feelings and ask myself “What would love do”. The answers I get have a lot of power, feel right — and are sometimes a bit scary!
