Ever wondered if your heart has a voice? we often listen to people saying the famous line “Follow your Heart”. I was always curious about this aspect of life when people say follow your heart. How do we know that? the other word I hear is gut feeling. Now, what is this?
Being an overthinker for most of my life, I never know what is the difference between any of these. I always have some chatter or thoughts going on in my mind. I simply ignore all of them & finally act based on what is acceptable or what is meant to be done at that point of time. This gave me a good image in society, results & even a great career. However, this good old quote is still a question mark. Then one fine day,I slept thinking about this & boom, something happened. I just dreamt something unusual.
So this was the dream: I was walking around my hometown. I am a bit off with the news that my doctor has told me. He just said that I only have a day to die. I wasn’t crying, I was just so disappointed for some reason. I was walking around here & there looking at things. I felt nothing changes the next day even if I leave. But why am I not crying? Why am I feeling meaningless? I don’t have any passion for anything. Though I have achieved a lot of things, I just felt like a waste in my dream. Then I realized what I was missing & soon I got an urge to find out what I love for which I could die. Then I woke up.
This is a very experiential story. words can’t explain what level of lack I felt in that dream & how meaningless everything felt like. That is the day when I felt like, I should take charge of everything in my life. I want to feel the life at its fullest. But wait, what is the fullest? where should I start with ? what should I strive for newly? The answer for all of these is just heart. I started listening to my feelings which are in strong alignment with what I believe even though that stands against what society says. This was really not easy. I had to let go of all my laziness. I had to believe myself much more than what I used to. But here I am, taking this journey step by step of taking actions & working hard on what I believe takes my life’s experience the fullest & best. As a spoiler, I will reveal one of my madnesses, it is talking. Perceiving things from different viewpoints & giving new meaning to what already exists is my favorite thing to do.
So that brings forward this page “Voice of Heart” to all of you who are reading this. I really thank you for reading this till here. I will write more interesting blogs here which hopefully should add color to life.
