The Mind Wants to Be Happy

We feed our brain with loads of information. We study and educate ourselves with knowledge. We try to satisfy the intellectual leanings of our head. Fundamentally, our minds want to be happy. We want to feel satisfied and curious.

The Heart Wants to Love and Be Loved

But the heart is governed by feminine energy. The heart is ruled by our inner guidance. Fundamentally, the heart wants to purely love. And it wants to be loved in return. I feel love is a raw, gorgeous energy that lifts our spirits and it’s what guides us to our higher calling in life.

The heart wants to be healed. It wants to forgive and let go. If we are clinging to fears and resentments, it’s not serving us any good. Deep down, our hearts wants to release these fears and emotions so it can love freely and live our purpose. We cannot love fully and freely until we don’t let go of our fears and resentments…
