What if we recognized the power of the heart?

What if we do already know and even feel the need for other people and for collaboration? What if we found a more lively word? What if we sought out each other for what we already know we can give each other? What if we went out into the world with the expectation of finding one another?

What if we recognized the power of the heart to get work done? The broken heart?

For me the what if means I am not going to meet people with my fists clenching in anticipation, I am going with my arms reaching to embrace. It means loving people—as they are, where they are—not even wanting them to engage the world. Yes, I need to stand for what I stand for—but I can invite and hear.

Invite and hear. Listen to my own heart. Listen for love. Invite and hear.
