Head VS. Heart

“Gimme a beat!”

I feel it. Do you hear it? Listen very closely. Shut off all of the noise around you. Forget about the voices, the sounds, the lights. Just feel it. Don’t worry about those daily troubles, right now is your moment. It’s a moment to feel yourself in relation to the world. Hear it now? It’s your heart. It has its own natural beat. It creates its own rhythm for the music of everyday life. Now, listen even closer; you can hear mine. They’re different, yet the same. Mine is the slight twitter of a heart full of joy, ready to dance and leap across the world in bounds or maybe even swim the Atlantic, just to find myself in another country. (If only I could live with the fish) Yours might be the slow rhythm of someone who ponders, the fast and heavy rhythm of someone full of life and passion. Maybe it’s the THUMP THUMP, thump THUMP THUMP of someone like me.

In any case, it’s your heart. It’s pure emotion, the first to react with passion in a moment. Yet, in a lot of cases, it’s the head that wins. Yet, why does the head get to have all of the fun? Let the heart take you places that you’ve never even dreamed of. You might just land in a magical place: the moon, the stars, or maybe you’ll come back down to Earth and land in the ocean. I wouldn’t mind that, myself.

Let the natural rhythm of the heart take you places. Let it feel. Let it beat. Let it make its music.
