When your heart is in it

It's all sweetness & light when your heart is in it. Whatever "it" is.

"It" can be a career, a job, (there is a difference betwixt the two), a friendship, a romantic relationship, a hobby, even having a pet.

When the desire, when the connection is there, it will remain, come what may, whatever it is that life throws at you.

It will stay there, nearly effortlessly. You will yearn for it.

If you have ever been close to another person then lost contact or had what's referred to as a falling out, a heated disagreement.

Some time may pass with no contact.

When the two re-unite, it's as if it was only yesterday you saw them.

Have you experienced that?

Are you saying yes?

Yes?

or

No?

Yes or no?

If you have not had this experience, you might. Or you might not.

If you have had this experience, did you just smile?

Maybe.

I smiled.

A smile of recognition.

When one accepts the other, the other will be forgiven a multitude of misdeeds, a multitude of forgiveness is applied.

When the acceptance is absent, there will be a running tally of sins.

Acceptance or the lack of it can be in any interpersonal interactions.

Marriage

Family

Workplace

Neighbors

Friendship

When the chemistry, when the connection is there, you will know.

The other or the absence of it is just as palpable.

Listen to your heart while also listening to your head.

If it's worth putting your heart into it's worth putting yourself into.
